Spurs player ratings v Liverpool

Starting XI

Guglielmo Vicario – X/10

Should have done better at dealing with Szoboszlai’s free-kick and showed his distribution to be shaky at times, although it was his long ball forward that led to the equaliser.

Pedro Porro – 5/10

Struggled against the pace and skill of Rio Ngumoha throughout.

Kevin Danso – 6/10

The better of the centre-back pairing looked strong and assured throughout.

Radu Dragusin – 5/10

A rather shaky performance at times, was caught out by Salah at one point, which could have easily led to a goal

Djed Spence– 7/10

Did well against Frimpong in the first-half, winning 100% of his ground duels, continued his strong defensive performance in the second period and also had the energy to get up and contribute to the attack.

Archie Gray – 6/10

Struggled to make an impact on the game while in midfield, but did deliver one delicious cross in the 78th minute that was not met by a team-mate.

Pape Sarr – 7/10

A strong performance from the midfielder, used his physical attributes well and completed more passes than any other Spurs player.

Souza – 6/10

Only his second Premier League start, and was playing as a right-midfielder despite being a left-back by trade. Gave the free-kick away that led to the first goal but a solid showing

Mathys Tel – 6/10

Spurs’ biggest creative threat until substituted off in the 74th minutes. Did well carrying the ball upfield to give his defence a chance to rest and created a couple of chances for Richarlison.

Richarlison – 8/10

Scored what could it be a vital goal in Tottenham’s relegation race but also had a number of chances throughout that he was unable to capitalise on.

Dominic Solanke – 5/10

Spent far more time behind the ball defending than he would have liked and only managed one touch in the Liverpool box.

Substitutes

Xavi Simons – 6/10

Struck a sweet volley with his first touch but that effort was blocked failed to do much else.

Randal Kolo Muani – 7/10

Provided the assist for Richarlison with a calm pass.

Callum Olusesi – 6/10

A Premier League debut, did not have a big impact but a solid cameo.

James Rowswell – 6/10

Played just one minute on his Premier League debut..
