The Liverpool fans are in dreamland. They've had a tough season but they won't forget this afternoon in a hurry. They'll always be able to say that they won the first derby at the Hill Dickinson Stadium. What a result for Arne Slot.

It's hard to say who deserved it.

I think a draw would have been the fair result but it's nothing to do with fairness.

Liverpool have got gears to go through.

Virgil van Dijk had a very good game today. It's van Dijk again, it's Mo Salah again and they have broken Everton hearts.

That header. I think, has given Liverpool Champions League football for next season.

I cannot see them losing it from here.

FIrst half they kept Forest at bay, but Pereira will have told his players to put pressure on Dubravka. When you put Burnley under pressure, you should get good outcomes and today Forest did.

Liverpool's players celebrate in front of the away fans, as well they might, after a massive win.

Virgil van Dijk is the hero but it is Andy Robertson and Mohamed Salah - playing in their final Merseyside derbies - who are pushed forward to lead the celebrations.

The first derby at the Hill Dickinson goes the ways of the Reds, who are now seven points clear of Chelsea in the race for fifth and a spot in next season's Champions League.

He snatched at a chance [before his first goal] and we thought it might be nerves. Good players don't dwell on it, they wait for the next opportunity.

Hats off to him. He stepped up when his team needed it.

Quite amazing scenes. This has to be one of the best games in the Premier League so far, two teams that were right up for it, played in the right manner, both believed in their ability.

Brilliant discipline and defensive structure to make it difficult for both teams and amazingly along side that we ended up with seven goals.

Villa looked like they were cut and dry but the character of Sunderland, it's hard to find words for. They never gave up, they made changes.

A wonderful game of football.

The final whistle goes and Virgil van Dijk is mobbed by his Liverpool team-mates.

Arne Slot's side take a huge step towards Champions League qualification with a 100th-minute winner.

Remarkable scenes.

Incredible scenes. That away end is in is in full voice. Liverpool have snatched victory in the dying seconds.

Liverpool are nearly there. James Garner chops down Curtis Jones, the Everton man is booked and Liverpool have a free-kick with surely just seconds left.

It's just a brilliant whipped ball in from the corner kick.

Virgil van Dijk gets his header right and makes it look incredibly easy at the near post.

That is a classic.

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall has been fantastic.

He lost time out of his career at Chelsea but he is making up for it now.

Liverpool corner as Dominik Szoboszlai's shot deflects behind.

Still time for a winner...

A roar of relief from the Villa crowd!

They made hard work of that at the end, but the hosts are the winners at the end of a seven goal thriller at Villa Park.

Sunderland fought back brilliantly and could have won it at the end, but they leave empty handed.

Rio Ngumoha just needs to keep it down, miles over the top.

Nearly a stunning derby moment for Rio Ngumoha!

It's a really good chance for the teenager as Liverpool work the ball nicely through the Everton half.

The pass invites him to hit it first time, he does but curls it high over the bar.

With all the emotion he must have gone through this week, Elliot Anderson has been by far the standout player of the game. Everyone will obviously talk about Morgan Gibbs-White, but I have lots of respect for Anderson, the way he has conducted himself has been fantastic.
