Liverpool on Sunday, March 3, missed the chance to return to the top of the Premier League standings after been forced to a goalless draw by Everton at Goodison Park.

Jurgen Klopp's men will have themselves to blame for not winning this match against Everton as they missed many chances in the first half.

Everton actually got the first chance to score in the 7th minute when Idrissa Gueye directed a good pass to Theo Walcott, but the former Arsenal star could not score.

Liverpool had a nice chance to take the lead three minutes later when Fabinho with an excellent run set up Sadio Mane, but his shot was blocked by Jordan Pickford.

Everton goalie Jordan Pickford was superb in his department as he denied Liverpool from scoring at the death for the match to end 0-0.

Liverpool are still second on the Premier League standings with 70 points, while Everton are occupying 10th on the log with 37 points.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism.

The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
