The Reds claimed a 2-1 win over Spurs in a Premier League clash on Sunday afternoon. Mohamed Salah scored a brace in the first half to secure the victory in North London for Jurgen Klopp's side.

Harry Kane got a goal back for Tottenham in the second half to set up a nervous finish for Liverpool in the capital. But they held on to secure their first away victory in the top flight this season.

After the match, Carragher took to Twitter to praise the performance of three Reds players. Salah got the majority of the attention, but the former Liverpool defender also liked what he saw from Darwin Nunez and Ibrahima Konate.

“Big result for Liverpool,” wrote Carragher. “Mo Salah sensational, Nunez causing chaos as usual and Konate makes the team quicker & more powerful!”

Nunez caused problems for Tottenham’s defence in the first half, forcing a save from Hugo Lloris and providing the assist for Salah’s opening goal. Konate also impressed with a second consecutive start following his return from injury.
