LIVERPOOL 1-1 TOTTENHAM
Liverpool’s title hopes have been dented after Jurgen Klopp’s side are held to a draw by Tottenham.
Liverpool knew a win would send them two points clear at the top of the Premier League table above Manchester City. Although a draw moves the Merseyside club into first, City – who have a game in hand - can go three clear with a win over Newcastle on Sunday.
CORNER FOR LIVERPOOL
Emerson makes a crucial tackle on Diaz before he can get a shot away. The corner comes to nothing.
BIG CHANCE SQUANDERED BY SPURS!
Winks' cross to the far post finds Hojbjerg free at the far post, but instead of attacking it he tries to square it for Kane and Liverpool can clear!
YELLOW FOR KEITA
The substitute is booked for fouling Kane.
Yellow card
N. Keïta

TOTTENHAM BREAK AGAIN
On the Tottenham counter-attack, Davies burst down the left and gets the ball off Son on the overlap, but his cross veers wide and out for a goal-kick.
HOJBJERG IS DOWN
The Denmark international is down in some discomfort after Tsimikas boots a cross into the back of his head. It gives the Spurs players time to get back and defend this corner. The cross into the box is nodded clear.
SUB FOR TOTTENHAM
Tottenham are taking their time over this change. Kulusevski makes way for Winks.

LIVERPOOL CONTINUING TO COME FORWARD
Appeals for a penalty as Mane goes down in the box but referee Oliver waves away the half-hearted protests.
GOAL! LIVERPOOL EQUALISE THROUGH DIAZ!
What an important goal for Liverpool and it's Diaz who gets it! Diaz drops a shoulder and smashes a low shot on goal from outside the box. It takes a huge deflection off Bentancur and flies into the bottom corner! Liverpool are level!

L. Díaz
A CRUCIAL BLOCK FROM DAVIES!
Salah cuts inside and looks to unleash a goalbound shot, but Davies makes an excellent sliding block to deny the Egyptian. Davies has had a brilliant game.
YELLOW FOR SESSEGNON
The wingback drags Salah down outside the Tottenham box before he could storm in there, but it means Liverpool have a free-kick in a good position. It goes to waste, though, as Alexander-Arnold's cross evades everyone and goes out for a goal-kick.
Yellow card
R. Sessegnon
YELLOW FOR TSIMIKAS
The Greek international drags down Kulusevski and is booked for his troubles.
