The 1986 FA Charity Shield (also known as the General Motors FA Charity Shield for sponsorship reasons) was a Merseyside derby between Liverpool and Everton at Wembley. Liverpool achieved a Football League and FA Cup double in 1985–86 so their opponents in the Charity Shield match were Everton who finished as runners-up in both competitions.
Adrian Heath opened the scoring for Everton in the 80th minute before Ian Rush equalised in the 88th minute; the match finished 1–1. The two clubs held the shield for six months each.
