Tottenham let in three goals in the first 15 minutes at Liverpool, came back to equalise in stoppage time, then conceded a 94th-minute winner to Diogo Jota as the Reds won a dramatic encounter 4-3 at Anfield.
After trailing 5-0 after 20 minutes at Newcastle last Sunday and 2-0 at half-time to Manchester United in midweek, Spurs were feeble in starting a match once again as Curtis Jones and Luis Diaz put Liverpool 2-0 up after six minutes.
It was three for Liverpool just under 10 minutes later when Mohamed Salah struck from the penalty spot after Cristian Romero had fouled the excellent Cody Gakpo in the area.

Again, it was Salah playing a major role in setting up the chance: releasing Gakpo to the right byline and his cross found Diaz in the box to net in his first Liverpool start since October. Romero had let Diaz go for the tap-in and it was not long until the Spurs defender had his head in his hands once again. The Argentine clumsily clipped Gakpo in the box and Salah put two spot-kick misses behind him against Bournemouth and Arsenal to send Forster the wrong way. As some Spurs fans headed for the Anfield exits, Liverpool went into cruise control by creating half-chances at best until the interval - but Spurs took that slackness to their advantage and could have easily levelled the game. Image: Tottenham players show the strain in the first half at Anfield Son was released by Kane down the left and despite rolling past goalkeeper Alisson Becker - Virgil van Djik was there to clear from off the line in a warning for Liverpool. But moments later, Spurs pulled one back and this time Van Dijk was at fault. The Netherlands defender slipped as he tried to close down Ivan Perisic on the break, leaving the Croatia international to cross for Kane, who could not miss as he smashed through Alisson's legs. It could have been two for Spurs moments after that as Kulusevski profited on another Liverpool mistake, but Alisson kicked away his near-post effort in a golden chance. Those opportunities created an edgy feeling at Anfield at half-time, despite the scoreline. The mood was made even more nervy 10 minutes after the restart as Spurs hit the post twice in quick succession Son's counter-attack saw the South Korea forward strike the outside of Alisson's near post, while Romero's acrobatic effort from Kane's cross bounced once then off the far post seconds later.

Meanwhile, Spurs pounced again as Son beat Liverpool's offside trap and finished past Alisson to move one goal away from Liverpool on 77 minutes. Spurs saw three penalty calls waved away - including one controversial rejection for an alleged tug back by Ibrahima Konate on substitute Richarlison - as Mason's side continued to build more pressure on a tense Anfield. The visitors were also left aggrieved that matchwinner Jota was not given a red card for a very high foot on Oliver Skipp - which was only punished with a caution. Eventually, Tottenham's equaliser finally came as Richarlison nodded home Son's free-kick at the far post to send the travelling Spurs fans who remained into delirium in their Anfield corner. Richarlison took his shirt off in his celebrations and took part in his infamous pigeon celebration with Son. Image: Substitute Richarlison celebrates after scoring a late equaliser for Spurs at Anfield But then Moura, who is close to ending his time at Tottenham, gave the ball away far too cheaply which allowed Jota to burst through and crash home a winner past Forster. An ending which showed the beauty of the Premier League.

Ryan Mason was left 'baffled' by the decision not to give Jota a red card for a high boot on Oliver Skipp
Tottenham interim boss Mason could not hide his anger at not seeing Jota sent off for his high challenge on Skipp.
Mason, who himself retired from football at the age of 26 due to a serious head injury, felt the red card was "impossible to miss".

Klopp discusses his altercation with referee Paul Tierney and assistant John Brooks
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp admitted his team "got away with" the win - and Tottenham caused them problems by not changing their set-up.
"For a long period of the first half it was the best game we had played so far," he said. "The first half was good, we conceded a goal but it was the first time we didn't defend properly.
"The problem is Tottenham do not change at all, they go for counter-attacks even at 3-1 down. They just defend, counter-attack and get set-pieces and that makes it tricky.
"We got away with it thanks to Diogo Jota, it makes it spectacular and everybody goes home buzzing, but I am the manager of the team so I have to mention everything else as well. In three days' time [against Fulham] we have to do better."
Sky Sports' Sam Blitz:
If an alien came down to Earth and wanted to know everything about Tottenham's last 15 years, this game at Liverpool would have covered most of it.
All you need to know about the 'Spursy' term was laid bare at Anfield. A last chance to keep up the pace with the top four? Three-nil down. Winning the hearts and minds of the neutrals to come back to level in stoppage time. Then just as they are about to walk away with a point, concede again by literally gifting Liverpool a goal.
"That is the most Tottenham thing you will ever see," said Sky Sports' Gary Neville on co-comms as Moura gave the ball away to Jota to run through and score.
The Brazilian is responsible for Spurs' finest hour by scoring a hat-trick in a Champions League semi-final. But the fact he is capable of that error shows why Tottenham have not moved forward.
