"This is an absolute disaster for Liverpool in terms of their Champions League qualification. They have actually made Tottenham look like a decent team. The defending was absolutely shocking from Liverpool. I've been saying all half that Liverpool have been sleepwalking into this. It was an awful performance."
"Liverpool have now dropped seven points from winning positions at Anfield in the Premier League this season, their most since the 2016-17 campaign. Richarlison's equaliser means Liverpool have now conceded eight Premier League goals in the 90th minute or later this season, which is their most in a single campaign, overtaking seven in 2010-11."
Liverpool drew 1-1 with Tottenham at Anfield after Richarlison scored a 90th-minute equalizer to cancel out Dominik Szoboszlai's first-half free-kick. The result prevented Liverpool from leapfrogging Aston Villa into fourth place following Villa's earlier defeat to Manchester United. Instead, Liverpool moved to fifth after Chelsea lost to Newcastle. The draw represents a significant setback, as Liverpool have now dropped seven points from winning positions at Anfield this season, matching their 2016-17 record. Jamie Carragher criticized the performance as a "disaster," highlighting poor defending that allowed Richarlison's late goal. Liverpool have conceded eight Premier League goals in the 90th minute or later this season, their worst record in a single campaign.
