Eric Dier ditches his anchorman duties to spray an ambitious crossfield pass, but his ball has more pace than Kyle Walker, beating the full-back to the corner flag.

Seven to play.

Liverpool bring on Joe Allen - the scorer of a late equaliser against Arsenal earlier this season - for Adam Lallana.

Hugo Lloris looked like he had picked up a strain, but the Spurs captain has shaken it off.

Breath-taking attacking from Tottenham as Christian Eriksen's reverse clipped through ball is almost perfect for Dele Alli's run.

Alli controls on his chin rather than his chest though and Simon Mignolet is able to smother at his feet.

At the other end, Divock Origi's low near-post effort is comfortably covered by Hugo Lloris.

A bit of argy-bargy and dirty looks between Adam Lallana and Dele Alli delay the taking of the set-piece. 

Calm down lads, you were England team-mates last week.

Lovely stuff from Liverpool as Jordan Henderson and Divock Origi's one-touch passes spring Philippe Coutinho down the left.

Daniel Sturridge trudges off and Divock Origi is given 20-odd minutes to empty the tanks up front for Liverpool.

Philippe Coutinho within a whisker!

The Brazilian darts outside Kyle Walker and from the tightest of angles absolutely spanks a shot across the face of goal.

It skims across the goalline, clips the far post and continues out for a throw-in.

So close.

"Liverpool are under pressure and they need to work a little bit harder. That's why I'm asking the question whether Jurgen Klopp needs to changes things a bit? 

Might Liverpool need to freshen things up themselves?

Tottenham with the wind in their sails now.

White shirts are piling forward and Liverpool are back in their shell.

Simon Mignolet gets down superbly to palm away a Christian Eriksen daisy-cutter that looked destined for the bottom corner.

Spurs are struggling to gain a foothold here as Liverpool start to dominate - and they need to do so very quickly if their Premier League title chances are not to take a heavy hit here at Anfield.

And they simply have to take chances like the one Son Heung-min has just missed. They breath again at Anfield - and in Leicester.

"Great pass from Eric Dier to Son Heung-min but Liverpool left-back Alberto Moreno was caught sleeping there." 

That looked for all the world like the leveller. Eric Dier's floated crossfield ball is perfectly weighted for Son Heung-min who meets it sweet as a nut on his instep.

His volley is past Mignolet before the Liverpool goalkeeper can even flinch.

But it is just the wrong side of the far post.

Drama.
