Leicester vs Liverpool LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction tonight

Tottenham Hotspur were frustrated by VAR as they had to settle for a 1-1 draw at 10-man Southampton.

Spurs had two second-half goals controversially ruled out as they chased the three points at St Mary’s after Harry Kane’s penalty had earlier cancelled out James Ward-Prowse’s stunning opener for Saints.

Ward-Prowse found the far corner with a first-time effort in the 25th minute but Kane rifled in from the spot after Son Heung-min was chopped down by Mohammed Salisu, who was shown a red card.

It was all Spurs after the break and Kane saw a goal cancelled out for offside which did not look obvious on VAR and then referee Anthony Taylor adjudged Fraser Forster to have been fouled when he dropped the ball under an innocuous challenge from Matt Doherty.

Spurs had other chances through Doherty and Bryan Gil but they had to settle for a draw which sees them miss the chance to close the gap on fourth-placed Arsenal.

Full report:

Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuttl, speaking to Amazon Video: “I’m proud today of what we did here. I said at half time, although we knew it would be tough we deserved to get something because of how we played. Super aggressive, very high. There was only one mistake from Sali. The character and mentality of the team is what people want to see here. It’s the only way we want to play, we want to play brave. You have to be flexible and that’s what we did today - I’m super proud.”

Southampton captain James Ward-Prowse, speaking to Amazon Video: “We wanted to play an aggressive game. Sali is an aggressive player made an error but we’ve all been there and made mistakes before. We had to dig in deep. It was totally his fault but we had to stick in and get ourselves something out of the game, which we did. The Christmas period gives us an opportunity [to find momentum]. It’s not easy but it’s an opportunity to get as many points as we can.”

Elsewhere in the Premier League, West Ham thrashed Watford 4-1 to get back to winning ways and move back above Tottenham in the table, while Crystal Palace defeated Norwich 3-0.

And that is that! Southampton hang on to claim a point and hold Spurs to a draw with 10 men. Antonio Conte’s side threw everything at that in the final moments but Southampton deserved their point - even though Spurs had the majority of possession they didn’t really have a clear-cut chance to score the winner. They did, though, have two second-half goals disallowed, one for offside on Harry Kane and the other for a Doherty foul on Forster. Spurs may point to that and claim they were denied three points.

90+4 mins: SAVE! Spurs fly forward and Doherty slips in Gil - he cuts onto his left foot and drives a shot back across goal, but Forster palms it over the bar!

90+3 mins: WIDE! Spurs throw everything at Southampton in search of a late winner. Winks picks out Kane at the back post but with Walker-Peters beaten in the air, he can’t steer it back across goal!

90+1 mins: BLOCK! Out of nowhere, two mistakes from Davies and then Dier sees Broja running through on goal - Sanchez gets over to make a vital challenge and block his shot!

90 mins: Gil’s ball is scrambled clear by Walker-Peters - desperation for Southampton now!

There will be FIVE added minutes.

87 mins: Save! Moura picks the ball up on the edge, says, ‘I’ve had enough of this’, and unleashes a fierce shot which is batted clear by Forster.

The Brazilian then has a better chance after finding a nice pocket of space in the box but his first touch lets him down and Forster can get out to gather.
