On a cold and murky afternoon in north London, Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool delivered a pre-Christmas Premier League classic, ending in a 2-2 draw on December 19, 2021.
Harry Kane gave Tottenham an early lead, but Liverpool responded with goals from Diogo Jota and Andy Robertson. However, a mistake by Liverpool keeper Alisson allowed Tottenham's Son Heung-min to equalize in the 74th minute.
Robertson was sent off late in the game for a wild tackle, leaving Liverpool with 10 men. Despite numerous gilt-edged chances, Tottenham could not capitalize, and the draw was a fair outcome.
With the result, Liverpool remains three points behind Manchester City, while Tottenham sits in seventh place with 26 points, but with games in hand over the teams above them.
