Klopp: Politics mustn't come before football

Mohamed Salah cleverly fashioned one goal and was gifted another as Liverpool claimed a 2-1 win at Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League.

Salah opened the scoring after 11 minutes when he expertly controlled a pass from Darwin Nunez inside the area, turned and fired a low shot into the corner with his left foot. His second goal five minutes before half-time was a gift from Eric Dier who miscued a header from a kick downfield by Alisson and the Egyptian ran clear and dinked the ball past Hugo Lloris.

The hosts had their moments with Ivan Perisic hitting the woodwork in each half and they could have had a penalty when Ryan Sessegnon was bundled over by Trent Alexander-Arnold. After the break, Spurs raised their game, boosted by Dejan Kulusevski returning from injury off the bench. He had an almost instant impact as he fed Harry Kane who scored in the 70th minute

But Liverpool weathered the storm to claim the win and end a run of two Premier League defeats, leaving them eighth on 19 points after 13 games. Spurs slipped to fourth on 26 from 14.

Relive the action as Liverpool downed Spurs in the Premier League:

Chelsea 0-1 Arsenal

90+2 mins: Oh hello. Granit Xhaka and Trevoh Chalobah collide with each other near the byline and Mateo Kovacic comes over to kick off with the Arsenal midfielder.

That creates a barney with most of the players involved trying to break it up. More time ekes away for Chelsea.

87 mins: Arsenal substitute Kieran Tierney breezes past Conor Gallagher and is dragged down but the Chelsea midfielder. The Gunners are given a free kick on the left wing that Odegaard swings into the middle.

Azpilicueta gets up first and nods the ball away. Arsenal recycle it but Mendy is quickly off his line to pluck the ball out of the air.

84 mins: Gallagher swings a corner into the box for Chelsea who have finally found the focus to put Arsenal under pressure in their own final third. The corner comes out to Cucurella who scuttles a shot back into the box and sees his effort belted clear.

Chelsea 0-1 Arsenal

81 mins: There was a VAR check for a potential penalty against Chelsea but Marc Cucurella seemingly handled the ball outside the box so Arsenal are denied a spot kick.

Chelsea then attack down the left and a pacey cross comes into the middle but misses everyone and skips out of play.

Chelsea 0-1 Arsenal

75 mins: Close! A well worked counter-attack from Arsenal almost pays dividends for the visitors. Gabriel Jesus drives forward and cuts inside of Thiago Silva before giving the ball to Martin Odegaard.

Chelsea 0-1 Arsenal

72 mins: As it stands Arsenal are heading back to the top of the Premier League table. Coming into the weekend the Gunners had the second best defence in the league which will make things even more difficult for Chelsea.

The Arsenal fans are singing loud and proud right now. They’re the dominant force inside Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea 0-1 Arsenal

69 mins: Thiago Silva tries to get something going for Chelsea and sends a diagonal pass up the pitch towards Raheem Sterling who has made a decent run into the Arsenal box.

Zinchenko shuffles across and leaps ahead of the forward before winning the ball in the air and heading it clear.
