LONDON, Oct 18 (AFP): Liverpool were beaten 2-0 by Everton in the Merseyside derby on Sunday as the English footballing giants' new era got off to a bitterly disappointing start.

In Sunday's late game, Manchester City slashed Chelsea's lead at the top of the table to just two points after two goals from talismanic skipper Carlos Tevez and David Silva secured a 3-2 victory at battling Blackpool.
