Liverpool 3-1 Spurs | Carabao Cup Highlights

Ties in the Carabao Cup's third round don't come much tougher than a trip to Anfield. Tottenham Hotspur arrive on Merseyside to take on a red side that have yet to really get going under new boss Andoni Iriola, but they do remain unbeaten. Roberto Zerbi has made changes and whilst Spurs are yet to score in the Premier League, they put five past Charlton in the previous round. Liverpool also heavily rotate, but there's still plenty of senior quality out there. Berival just glides away from Neyoni, offloads to Gallagher. Udoge, just get there ahead of Ingemar, Berival! Mamadashvili, what a stop! Back in by Gray, and there's a push that the referee spotted. But Lucas Berival has scored his first ever Spurs goal in this competition against Liverpool. Perhaps should have done so again. In this competition though, eight previous meetings and four wins each. And Kamawa, Koumas is in! And Dubravka's made an outstanding save. Koumas was on, Liverpool were nearly in for 1-0. Gomez, what a take from Cody Gakpo. Pulls away from Tosin, finds Rio Ingemar. He squares up to Udoge and dances through. McAllister! Well, it's ruthless from Liverpool. Has that intent, doesn't he? Looking for that first goal as a Tottenham Hotspur player. Marmouche, he's dug that one out, hasn't he? And Marmouche will break onto the loose ball. And here come Spurs with real numbers. Berival, Udoge on the outside, three in the middle. Udoge, and turnover by Kudus. Made that two huge Tottenham Hotspur chances. That is a fantastic break, it really is. From the 1-2 that Marmouche and Udoge play. Just here, lovely little 1-2 run from Berival. Now, four against two on the break. Berival rolls it to Udoge. Niyoni, McConnell, Koumas, McAllister again. Well, that is an opening for McAllister to get his second of the evening. Koumas, McAllister, Gakpo, so dangerous in these areas. And he pops it into the corner, wearing the captain's armband. To make it 2-0 to Liverpool. Tell again. Ball in the box, Benticle shuffles it onto Tosin. It wasn't a bad strike from the centre-back making his first start. Marmouche running again, decides to take it on himself. Gallagher, and deflected over the top. Another chance for Spurs, there have been chances tonight. Spurs just need to rediscover that goalscoring feeling. Certainly ahead of Villa at the weekend as well. To try and keep this tie alive, and they have done. And Connor Gallagher, who won the corner, has planted the header home. And Spurs are back in a tie with his first goal of the season. It's a much-needed goal for Connor Gallagher. The shot deflected from the corner, his frustration can be seen. But when this ball is delivered, the goalkeeper gets nowhere near it. Connor Gallagher's really nowhere near it. Berival, Gallagher, all lovely football. Berival, Marmouche, and Miloš Čerkes. The most vital of challenges for Liverpool. The keeper doesn't look comfortable. Oh, it's another one in on Mamadashvili. I think those kind of flashpoints are a reason to get excited about the return of James Madison. Oh, it's far too loose. McAllister, Soboslai, to Bravka, saves, and Liverpool should have made it 3-1. Robertson, oh, it's a good ball. And Berival, and that was some block at the back post. Spurs get the corner, it could have been 2-2. Madison, twisting and turning away from Koumas, and it's up by Gakpo. Liverpool struggling to clear their lines properly. Solanke, and it's in towards Omar Marmouche. Oh, what a stop from Georgi Mamadashvili. That's the save of the night. Spurs so close to the equaliser. What a save. And Spurs in disbelief. Marmouche, dropped back to Fernandes. James Madison, bends an effort that Mamadashvili will gather at the second attempt. And Fernandes turns, and now Spurs move. Look at Andy Robertson part of this attack. Berival, can he switch it? Yes, he can. Onto the toe of Savio. Great with him. Savio gets through! And with a minute and a half of the 90 remaining, will Spurs get a better chance than that? Forgiven. Soboslai! That decides this cup tie. Liverpool will progress. Madison, Madison. Oh, and Mamadashvili again, and there's Tosin. With the last chance of the match, James Madison has been a bright spark. Spurs go out to the Carabao Cup in the third round. Dominic Soboslai's wonder strike sealed it right at the end, when Spurs were pressing for that equaliser at 2-1. Liverpool had their commanding lead through Alexis McAllister and Cody Gappo goals. Gappo's not long after half-time. Gallagher made things interesting with his header from a corner, but it finishes at Anfield. Liverpool 3-1 Spurs.
