Liverpool are top of the Premier League. The Reds did what champions do and they won in the final moments. It was a hard fought victory. Spurs threatened on the break but they failed to take their chances. It took a late late goal to decide it. Liverpool fans have been raving over Roberto Firmino after his late winner against Spurs.
Libpool top of the league
This was a titanic clash between two sides at the top of the Premier League.
The Reds were tied on points with their visitors going into tonight’s tie, Jose Mourinho’s men ahead on goal difference.
Knowing that the winners would go top of the table was motivation enough for a top football match.
Liverpool dominated the ball and created a few chances throughout but conversely it was the visitors with the best of the chances.
Mo Salah put us ahead in the first half before Son equalised.
The second half was nervy to say the least and it was decided by a Bobby Firmino header.
Roberto Firmino v Spurs
A late corner saw Liverpool saved by Roberto Firmino.
The Brazilian nodded home with just moments left of the game.
He rose higher than everybody in the defence to canon the ball into the top corner.
It was a Champions’ performance from the lads because champions win in the very last moments when it matters.
Liverpool fans on Roberto Firmino

His song came up.
It was an unstoppable effort.
It was an extra special effort.
Who said he isn’t world class?
It was a passionate celebration.
There’s none better.
