Liverpool’s Leighanne Robe denied in thrilling WSL Merseyside derby draw
A Merseyside derby would not be a Merseyside derby without a touch of controversy and the first WSL edition to be held at Goodison Park did not disappoint. Liverpool wanted revenge for their 3-0 humbling by Everton earlier in the season and thought they had it when Leighanne Robe swept them ahead. The referee decreed otherwise, ensuring the outcome would be as fiercely contested as the occasion itself.
