But the side stayed resilient, and on the back of Richarlison’s hatred of Liverpool, the club got a well-deserved point in the dying minutes of the match for a 1-1 draw.

Skeptical about the match given all that has occurred at Tottenham, whether it’s the defeats in the league, a 5-2 embarrassment in the Champions League opening leg against Atletico Madrid, or the fact that 12 players are out again due to suspensions or injuries, the doubt coming into Anfield was high. Playing a 3-5-3/4-4-2 setup with Djed Spence on the left and Souza on the right, Spurs had to fight off the early pressure from Liverpool as the home side forced Vicario and Dragusin to play balls deep to the front three instead of trying to play passing moves and move the ball up the pitch. The match remained goalless through the first 17 minutes.

The roar from the away end echoed the passion they brought to energize the team. Liverpool then won a soft foul in a dangerous free-kick area for Dominik Szoboszlai. Szoboszlai entered the match with three direct free kicks, and Spurs had allowed 11 goals from outside the box, a league high.

The Hungarian hit his free kick to a relatively easy spot for Vicario to punch away. However, a poor first step and a hop to his right meant the Italian keeper barely got his hand on the ball. The ball ended up in the net, and Spurs were down 1-0.
