Katie Stengel has scored seven WSL goals for Liverpool this seasonEverton were held to a draw by Liverpool in a feisty Women's Super League Merseyside derby at a raucous Goodison Park.
Watched by a crowd of 22,161 fans, the match was the first women's derby to be played at the men's stadium.
Everton captain Gabby George opened the scoring in the 27th minute, floating in what looked like a cross from close to the byeline, but curling it out of reach of keeper Rachael Laws.
Liverpool levelled when Taylor Hinds' low shot ricocheted off Katie Stengel, but the forward managed to get the ball under control, turn and shoot low to the left and just out of reach of goalkeeper Courtney Brosnan.
A thrilling second half saw a goal apiece chalked off as Leighanne Robe's effort was denied by what looked like an innocuous challenge on Brosnan, before Jess Park curled a stunning shot into the top corner but it was ruled out for a handball in the build-up.
But despite some superb efforts from both sides, neither could find the winner to give their expectant fans bragging rights.
Sixth-placed Everton are now without a win in four games, while a point for Liverpool puts them eight points clear of the relegation place.
