Jamie Carragher was happy with how his testimonial went. Liverpool beat Everton 4-1 with Carra scoring a penalty for both sides on Saturday. All in all it was a great day for our number 23. "It was a good afternoon. It was all about having a good day and I'm pleased Everton were involved, there was a good crowd and everyone enjoyed it," said Carra. "It was a decent, proper game. There were a lot of changes and Everton had a lot of young lads playing, as we did in the second half, so I think it was great they were able to all get a game and hopefully that bodes well for the futures of both clubs. "It's always good to see your mates come back and I was delighted they all got involved. I'm pleased it went well for them. "There's been a bit of graft over the last few weeks, so I'll enjoy the occasion and hopefully it's done now. "I don't score too often, but I actually wanted the first penalty to be for Michael Owen to score - I'd totally forgot people would want me to take it. "As for the second penalty, I was a big Everton fan as a kid and always wanted to score a goal for them, so I've done that as well now and I was pleased with it."
