  3. “We switched off in moments"published at 19:51

    Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp: “I think we could have won this game. You cannot be satisfied after a draw, there were two world-class goals scored. First half was a stop-and-go game, we were brilliant at go, then stopped in concentration. 

    We played passes that brought them back into the game. 

    “We scored brilliant goal then Tottenham came back into the game a little bit because of us. 

    “We switched off in moments. Nathaniel Clyne thought the ball was out and Dejan Lovren – who had a brilliant game – was not close enough for the goal.  

    "It was an open and wild game with two teams with a good attitude."

  4. "We need to believe"published at 19:45

    Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino: “The first half was equal but we played well. The feeling after the game is that we missed two points. I am happy and very pleased with the performance.

    “In the second half we were better, we had chances. Liverpool had chances too but I am happy. Today was a hard game.

    “It was difficult to come to Liverpool and get the three points. It was maybe difficult to score the second goal but we played to win and in football sometimes you can’t win every game.

    “Leicester have a tough game against Southampton but we need to believe. Leicester deserve to be in the place they are but in football anything can happen. We have to fight until the end of the season.”

  5. "We have not got the consistency"published at 19:40

    Liverpool midfielder James Milner: “Both teams like to play a high-tempo passing game and we expected that. We probably created enough chances to win the game. We are disappointed not to win it.

    “Their goal came out of nothing. We have to be ruthless at times and take the chances.

    “When you are pressing so quickly, you have to calm down when you win the ball back. We are getting the style the manager wants us to play but we have not got the consistency. We should be doing it nine-ten times out of ten.

    “We want to finish the season strongly and take the momentum into next year.”

  6. "It could have gone either way"published at 19:35

    Tottenham striker Harry Kane to Sky Sports: “I think we are a tad disappointed. We wanted to come here and win and get the three points to chase the leaders. We got the goal back at 1-0 down and it is a shame we didn’t get the second.

    “It was an open game and about who could deal with the pressure better. We both created chances and it could have gone either way.

    “Christian Eriksen made a wonderful run and I just had to turn and get the shot off. I was buzzing to see it in the back of the net.

    “We are fighting for the Premier League, we will watch the Leicester game tomorrow and hope Southampton can get a result and do us a favour. We have done what we can do.

    “I am very proud of my achievement (in scoring 22 Premier League goals). You want to score in every game you play in. They feel even better when you get the three points. It would have been nice to go on and win the game.”

  7. Champions League qualificationpublished at 19:28

    Liverpool 1-1 Tottenham

    And in the fight for the right to party Champions League style next season...

    The maths is not looking any easier for Liverpool to make the top four. 

    They are five places and nine points off Manchester City, with a game in hand but both Manchester United and West Ham better placed to gate-crash into those CL spots.

    Top four

    This is what the results means for the title race.

    Leicester's lead is down to four. But could be up to seven by tomorrow tea-time after they play Southampton.

    "Both teams deserve applause for that game, as they both played well but that result will probably suit Leicester City. The second half was better than the first and Philippe Coutinho's goal lifted Liverpool but galvanised Tottenham."

    Liverpool 1-1 Tottenham

    A point gained for Tottenham or a point lost?

    In a normal season a draw at Anfield would be a decent result.

    But this is not a normal season. They are too high up the table and the gap to Leicester is too large.

    There is a sag in the shoulders of the visitors as they head back to the away dressing room.

     Toby Alderweireld's header is too clean a connection - whizzing into the boards when a glancing touch was needed at the near post.

    Tottenham fans are chewing their fingernails down to the knuckle.

    A draw here, combined with a Leicester win against Southampton tomorrow, would leave them seven points off the top with six to play.

  20. CLOSE!published at 85 mins

    Liverpool 1-1 Tottenham

    Hugo Lloris was braced for the net to bulge.

    Rooted to his line, he watches as Philippe Coutinho's shot shaves his near post on its way wide from 15 yards.

    Jordan Henderson's thump warms Lloris' palms shortly after.

    Liverpool coming on strong. Five to play.
