Liverpool player ratings vs Tottenham: Luis Diaz is back! Returning Reds star puts Spurs to the sword before Diogo Jota late show

Liverpool survived a spirited Tottenham fightback to move up to fifth in the Premier League with a remarkable 4-3 win at Anfield. Diogo Jota’s stoppage-time strike secured victory for the Reds, seconds after substitute Richarlison looked to have grabbed a point for Spurs.

Liverpool had been 3-0 up inside 15 minutes and threatening to run riot, with Curtis Jones sliding in his first of the season, Luis Diaz marking his first start since October with another and Mohamed Salah converting from the penalty spot.

Tottenham, though, rallied and pulled one back through Harry Kane before half-time, before staging a spirited second-half fightback.

Jota, though, would have the final say, sparking wild celebrations in the stands and on the sideline.
