Against already relegated Derby it took a low drive from midfielder Osman in the second half to claim the win that cut Liverpool's lead in fourth spot to three over the Toffees.

For Derby this was almost a triumph after 27 league games without a victory. They may have suffered the quickest relegation from the Premier League but they showed heart and spirit throughout.

Ghaly was booked for a foul on Johnson before Everton sent on Anichebe for Yakubu after 73 minutes. Four minutes later Jagielka replaced Fernandes.

Derby kept working, and twice Kenny Miller saw long-range efforts go wide.

Savage was booked after 85 minutes for a foul on Arteta but it was Everton defending in the closing minutes to keep out Derby's attempts to equalise.

Everton sent on Nuno Valente for Arteta in injury-time.
