As we all know Liverpool are currently in bad condition after eliminated from the Champions League in the middle of last week, has failed in the Carling Cup and appeared sluggish in the Premier League defeat to have as many as five times.
"This is a significant victory for us. Derby is always a difficult fight, so it can be a boost to us for the rest of this season," said Rafa on the official club website.
"Obviously this is a difficult fight, and they (Everton) played with a very straightforward and has a good set pieces. It is difficult to control them, and I think we managed to show character."
