Impressive return to winning ways for the Liverpool which… remains alive.
The “reds” prevailed 4-2 welcoming her Tottenham at “Anfield” as part of the 36th “turn” of the Premier League.
Thus, being third (78b.), they reverted to -5 from the pioneer Arsenal and at -4 from 2nd Manchester City (match less, against Tottenham). Of course, even so, their hopes for a title remain slim given the remaining matches.
At the same time, they forced the team of Angelos Postecoglou to fourth straight losswith the “spurs” not capitalizing on the defeat (1-0) earlier Aston Villa from Brighton in their attempt to take that 4th place that gives a ticket to next season’s Champions League. In comparison, they are 5a (60b.) and at -7, but also with less competition, than the “villagers”.
In the competitive part now, the hosts came in very strongly, with many phases from the start.
And since o Salah warned at 8′ with beamcame himself to 16′ to open the scoring for his team. Liverpool continued to miss chances, with him Robertson in the 45′ to take the “rebound” and double her goals from close range.
In the second half he took action Eliot. The Reds continued to be… hot for another quarter. Interval, in which the 21-year-old ace initially served 3-0 to Hakpo (50′), with the English midfielder himself scoring the best goal of the match, in 59′ with a shooter out of range.

From then on, the hosts began to turn the tables. Something that Tottenham took advantage of when they re-entered the game with him as the protagonist Richarlison. The Brazilian striker was substituted in the 61st minute and 72′ reduced to 4-1, while at 77′ provided the assist for his goal Son for 4-2.
Several missed opportunities afterwards, mainly for Liverpool who found… acres in the opposition (with Tottenham being positioned high, in order to score another goal). In the end, there was no change in the score, with the “reds” taking the victory.
