A tale of tactics
Antonio Conte had spent a full week preparing his Tottenham players for what would greet them at Anfield and that was clear over the course of the ensuing 90 minutes.
Spurs dampened the famous Anfield atmosphere, restricting the noise to the opening minutes of each half, in the aftermath of Luis Diaz's deflected equaliser and then later when a few corners were won by the home side in the final moments. Other than that, all you could hear were the travelling Tottenham fans and the occasional lone voice among the home crowd trying to get a Mohamed Salah chant started.
