Jurgen Klopp had his goalkeeper Alisson to thank
Jurgen Klopp had his goalkeeper Alisson to thank for 'saving' his 'an embarrassment' in Liverpool's hard-fought win at Crystal Palace.
Liverpool ran out 3-1 winners at Selhurst Park, but the scoreline could have been different had it not been for Brazilian shot-stopper Alisson
The home side called him into action on a number of occasions, but he was more than up to the challenge to deny Jean-Philippe Mateta, Odsonne Edouard and Michael Olise in particular.
And reacting to Alisson's heroics, Klopp told Sky Sports: "I said to him just now, 'Thank you for saving our a**e again'.
"He said, 'That’s my job'. Of course it is very helpful to have a world-class goalkeeper at the back!"
The 29-year-old was beaten once by Edouard, but there was nothing Alisson could do about that as Mateta squared to the Frenchman to tap into an empty net.
That goal denied Alisson an 11th Premier League clean-sheet in just 20 games this season.
The Reds' second goalscorer Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain also singled out Alisson for praise, saying Liverpool 'haven't got anyone' they would rather than the Brazil international.
Harry Kane thought lead against Chelsea celebrations cut short
Harry Kane thought he'd given Tottenham the lead against Chelsea, until referee Paul Tierney cut his celebrations short.
England captain Kane collected a low cross from Ryan Sessegnson, before turning and firing past Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga.
The only problem though was Tierney spotted a foul in the build-up to the goal.
As Kane controlled the ball from Sessesgnon, the striker put an arm on Thiago Silva's back before slotting into the back of the net.
That arm in the back was judged to have been a push, as Silva was sent sprawling to the floor.
Gary Neville though was left in disbelief at the decision, saying on punditry duty for Sky Sports: "That is not a foul. No chance.
"I mean look there's an arm there from Harry Kane, but that is not a foul for me."
And fans on social media agreed, as one fumed: "The game is gone if that’s a foul."
While another said: "Harry Kane has been robbed of a goal."
It's after Liverpool were awarded a controversial penalty earlier in their game against Crystal Palace, as fans on social media lamented both decisions.

The fast-starting Reds moved nine points behind leaders Manchester City
Virgil van Dijk's soaring header and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain's fine finish rewarded the Reds' first-half superiority.
But Liverpool looked edgy once Odsonne Edouard tapped Palace back into it on 55 minutes.
But Fabinho tucked home Liverpool's late penalty clincher after VAR intervened following a foul on Diogo Jota.
