Daniel Sturridge's goal was his fourth in all competitions for Liverpool this season
Manchester City moved to the top of the Premier League as they beat Brighton and Liverpool's 100% start to the season ended with a 1-1 draw against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
Daniel Sturridge's spectacular last-gasp equaliser leaves the Reds level on points with defending champions City, but behind them on goal difference.
Earlier, the pressure increased on Jose Mourinho as Manchester United were beaten by West Ham while City, Tottenham and Arsenal all secured victories.
Manchester United lost 3-1 at London Stadium and have made their worst start to a league season for 29 years.
A goal from Felipe Anderson and a deflected shot off Victor Lindelof gave the Hammers a first-half lead and Marko Arnautovic made sure of the points after Marcus Rashford pulled a goal back.
Manchester City climbed to the summit as goals from Raheem Sterling and Sergio Aguero ensured a 2-0 win over Brighton, while Tottenham kept within touch of the top three with a comfortable 2-0 victory at Huddersfield thanks to a first-half double from Harry Kane.
Fifth-placed Arsenal remained level on points with Tottenham as a late own goal from Craig Cathcart and a Mesut Ozil tap-in ensured a 2-0 win over Watford at Emirates Stadium.
The 2-0 scorelines continued as a goal either side of half-time from Jamie Vardy and Harry Maguire gave Leicester a comfortable victory over Newcastle at St James' Park.
Wolves made it three wins out of seven with a 2-0 home victory over Southampton but Everton bucked the trend as Gylfi Sigurdsson's second goal extended their margin of victory over Fulham to 3-0, with Cenk Tosun the other scorer.
In the Championship, West Brom moved top thanks to a 3-2 win at bottom side Preston, while winless Ipswich squandered a 2-0 lead at St Andrew's as Birmingham came from behind to draw. Middlesbrough were held to a 1-1 draw at Hull, Swansea thrashed QPR and Derby lost at Bolton.
In the Scottish Premiership, Hearts remain five points clear at the top after holding off a late comeback charge from St Johnstone to win 2-1 while Hibernian grabbed a 1-0 win over St Mirren. Celtic also beat Aberdeen 1-0 and bottom-of-the-table Dundee got their first win of the season, defeating Hamilton 2-0.
