Liverpool 0 Tottenham 0: Both sides putting together some nice patches of football, but with little end product. Liverpool have a free kick but it's overhit by Coutinho and Lloris saves easily.

Liverpool 0 Tottenham 0: Good save from Lloris, getting down low at his near post and putting the ball out for a corner. Good little spell of pressure from Liverpool at the moment.
