"One of the Premier League's most historically chaotic fixtures lived up to the hype once again. Following a rather drab first half, all heck seemingly broke free in the second frame, where cards, tempers and goals were abound. In the end, goals from Alexander Isak and Hugo Ekitike were just enough for Liverpool to secure an away win over Tottenham by a tight 2-1 margin."
"Spurs had Xavi Simons and Christian Romero both sent off, while the Reds saw Isak cruelly come off injured seconds after scoring his goal. In the end, it was an important three points, but how much will it hurt them going forward? Here's how Liverpool rated in the enthralling victory. Alisson Becker 6.5/10 - Not his greatest showing, but he did make some fine stops and deflections as Spurs were pushing for an equalizer."
An explosive second half produced cards, tempers and decisive goals after a subdued first 45 minutes. Alexander Isak and Hugo Ekitike scored to secure a 2-1 Liverpool victory at Tottenham. Xavi Simons and Cristian Romero received red cards and Isak suffered an injury seconds after scoring. The result delivered three important points for Liverpool amid concerns over fitness and disciplinary issues. Player ratings show mixed performances: Alisson made key saves; Conor Bradley provided defensive stability; Ibrahima Konate was inconsistent but produced crucial late stops; Virgil van Dijk offered decisive headed clearances and composure.
