After the game, former Reds Graeme Souness and Jamie Carragher discussed the result:

Souness: “Another great advert for the Premier League. Two great teams going for it. It was a fabulous game of football. You very rarely see that in football.”

Carragher: “Madness – that is what makes the Premier League. It was just a brilliant game – Spurs deserved a draw.”

Carragher then discussed the role of Liverpool goalkeeper Loris Karius in the lead up to the Spurs equaliser:

“It is not like it drops to someone right on the edge of the box, he gets a good punch on it, but more often than not that is never going to go in.”

The former defender then went on to praise Mohamed Salah, who is now on 28 goals for the season:

“The only other player that can score that second Mohamed Salah goal is Lionel Messi.”

“The quick feet, the skill, the balance, just superb.”

Liverpool remain in third place, with Chelsea yet to play this game week. Next up for Klopp’s Reds is an away trip to Southampton next weekend.
