A 90th minute own goal by Tottenham Hotspur’s Toby Alderweireld handed Liverpool a 2-1 victory over the North Londoners in their Premier League match at Anfield on Sunday.
Roberto Firmino had opened the scoring for Liverpool after heading in Andrew Robertson’s cross in the 16th minute.
However, Lucas Moura drew Spurs back level in the 70th minute.
Sadio Mane almost doubled Liverpool’s lead in the 20th minute only to see his curler from the edge of the box go just wide off target. The Senegalese forward went close again on 36 minutes with another curler but again saw his effort go inches wide.
In the 54th minute Alisson produced an important stop to deny Harry Kane before Robertson made a timely block.
Liverpool are back to the top of the league table on 79 points while Manchester City drop to second on 77 points.
