Liverpool regained their place at the top of the Premier League with a dramatic 2-1 victory over Tottenham at Anfield.
Toby Alderweireld could do nothing as the ball trickled off his shin and into the net in the 90th minute to send the Kop into delirium.

The title race is well and truly alive
Lucas Moura had appeared to dent the Reds’ title hopes when he pounced inside the box in the 70th minute to cancel out Roberto Firmino’s first-half opener.
And the hosts were forced to survive a surge of late pressure from Spurs when Moussa Sissoko broke free and fired over, before Dele Alli curled inches wide.

But instead, the Reds find themselves two points above title rivals City having played a game more, while third-place Tottenham can now be overtaken by Arsenal if the Gunners get a result against Newcastle on Monday night.
Andy Robertson provided yet another assist with a pin-point cross for Firmino in the 16th minute as Liverpool took the early advantage.
And Mane came within inches of doubling the lead after cutting back onto his right foot as Spurs continued to struggle dealing with Liverpool’s left side.

Salah’s header forced the own goal
But the equaliser was to come from Lucas, courtesy of brilliant control from Kieran Trippier from Harry Kane’s raking crossfield pass and Christian Eriksen helping on the ball to the Brazilian to score his side’s first goal not registered by Kane since February 13.
With 15 minutes to go, and Spurs in the ascendancy, Klopp turned to Fabinho and Divock Origi, who almost immediately had a free-kick deflected wide.

Moura had equalised for Spurs
Moussa Sissoko had chance to win it for the visitors five minutes from time when Liverpool were caught two-on-one at the back but the one was Van Dijk who, wary of the greater danger of Son Heung-min, delayed long enough to force the Frenchman into a decision and he blazed over.
It was to prove costly thanks to the late intervention of Mohamed Salah and Alderweireld, who was credited with the 400th goal of Klopp’s Anfield reign in his 197th game.
Jurgen Klopp has praised the Liverpool fans for guiding his team to an 'ugly' 2-1 victory over Tottenham at Anfield. The Reds returned to the top of the Premier League in dramatic fashion after Toby Alderweireld's unfortunate own-goal in the 90th minute.
