ROBERTO MARTINEZ has called the Merseyside derby a 'disaster' for Everton as Liverpool ran out 4-0 winners.
Roberto Martinez says the Merseyside derby was a disaster for Everton
The Toffees were humiliated at Anfield following the sending off of Ramiro Funes Mori early in the second half.
The centre-back was shown a straight red for a nasty stamp on the inside of Divock Origi's right leg.
"Probably a red card, I can understand it or maybe a yellow. The top and bottom is that we didn't cope with the emotions of the occasion. A feeling of embarrassment.
"It is a huge game for us on Saturday in the FA Cup which is the only good thing. We will be hurting for a long, long time but we need to react quickly for the game on Saturday. We are strong enough to react but we are short at centre-back now."
