Liverpool secured a fourth consecutive victory on Sunday afternoon after beating Tottenham Hotspur 4-3 at Anfield.
Jurgen Klopp's side raced into a three-goal lead after a blistering start on home soil saw goals from Curtis Jones, Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah left Spurs with a mountain to climb after only 15 minutes. To their credit, the visitors rallied and looked to have rescued a point after finishes from Harry Kane, Heung-min Son and Richarlison - only for Diogo Jota to strike late on to snatch a win.
This result has seen the Reds move above Aston Villa and Tottenham into fifth place with five matches remaining, though earlier results involving Manchester United and Newcastle United has ensured qualifying for the Champions League now appears a tall order.
