Tottenham ended Liverpool’s unbeaten start to the season with a dramatic 2-1 win over the Reds at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Pedro Porro’s cross was slammed into the back of his own net by the unfortunate Joel Matip to win the game in the dying embers.

Liverpool were down to nine men after Curtis Jones and Diogo Jota were sent off, but looked set to seal a massive point after Cody Gakpo cancelled out Heung-min Son’s opener.

However, it wasn’t to be for Jurgen Klopp’s men as Ange Postecoglou’s side moved up to second and leaped above Arsenal.
