Torres and Gerrard on fire

Torres and Gerrard on fire

26 December 2007 - 22:01

Steven Gerrard broke Derby hearts as he netted a last minute winner to help push Liverpool closer to the top of the Premiership. Fernando Torres scored Liverpool's other goal as they beat Derby at Pride Park 2-1.

  • Jay McEveley's first goal of the season, in the 67th minute, looked to have salvaged an unlikely draw for Paul Jewell's battling side after Fernando Torres had opened the scoring in the 12th minute.



    But a frantic finish saw Gerrard bundle home the decisive goal from close range in the 90th minute after Lewis Price had spilled Torres's initial shot and McEveley had fired his clearance straight to the England international.



    The defeat stretched Derby's winless run to 12 games and left Jewell still searching for his first victory since succeeding Billy Davies last month.
