바카라śWe just kept fighting, it was a big passion,바카라ť Klopp told Sky Sports. 바카라śIn the first half we were the better side and scored two wonderful goals. It바카라™s a long time ago since we won away in the Premier League so it was relief at the end. 바카라śYou need to learn winning again and that바카라™s how it starts, with massive resistance. It was clear they would come back but we came through it and it바카라™s all good.바카라ť
Salah put Liverpool in front after 11 minutes when Darwin Nunez controlled Andy Robertson바카라™s pass and teed up his strike partner. Salah swivelled and fired into the bottom corner to beat Hugo Lloris. Salah, last season바카라™s joint Golden Boot winner with Tottenham바카라™s Son Heung-min, doubled his tally in the 40th minute.
Eric Dier mistimed his header from Alisson Becker바카라™s clearance and Salah ran through on goal to lob Lloris. Kane fired Tottenham back into the game in the 70th when finishing from a tight angle to set up the chance of a comeback.
But despite intense pressure in the final stages, Liverpool held on to take all three points and move up to eighth. Tottenham is fourth, seven points ahead of Liverpool. Salah has now scored nine goals in his last eight games in all competitions.
바카라śWe did well to get the three points,바카라ť Salah told Sky Sports. 바카라śIt is always a tough opponent. I바카라™m focused on making a difference and managed to do so today.바카라ť
Tottenham was without Son on Sunday. The Spurs attacker sustained a fracture around his left eye during its 2-1 win at Marseille in the Champions League on Tuesday following a collision with Chancel Mbemba. The 30-year-old Son had surgery on Friday.
바카라śNow, he is at home,바카라ť Tottenham manager Antonio Conte said Sunday. 바카라śI sent him a message yesterday after the surgery and Sonny was really, really disappointed for this situation but I hope for him he will recover very well and play in the World Cup. 바카라śI was a player and I know the importance of playing in the World Cup ... I am confident, confident that he can come back quickly and play the World Cup for South Korea.바카라ť
