EPL: Liverpool takes back top spot after 2 - 1 home win against Tottenham

Roberto Firmino celebrates goal with Mohamed Salad - LiverpoolFC

Toby Alderweireld's late own goal gave Liverpool a priceless victory and put them back on top of the Premier League.


Visitors Tottenham looked on course to earn a point - and even wasted chances to go in front - after Lucas Moura deservedly equalised Roberto Firmino's first-half header for the home side.

Liverpool were on the brink of losing ground to Manchester City - 2-0 winners at Fulham on Saturday - until the title race took another dramatic twist in the closing moments in front of the Kop.

Spurs keeper Hugo Lloris failed to hold Mohamed Salah's routine far-post header and the ball ricocheted into the net off Alderweireld.

It was sheer elation for Liverpool, who are now two points clear of City having played a game more, but misery for Spurs, who are in a real fight for a top-four place and were left to regret Moussa Sissoko's glaring miss when through on goal minutes earlier.BBC Sport
