Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk accuses Harry Kane of diving after Tottenham striker wins soft penalty in thrilling draw at Anfield

Virgil van Dijk accused Harry Kane of diving after the Tottenham striker rescued a point from one of the most dramatic games of the season.

Mauricio Pochettino's side secured a 2-2 draw at Anfield with the last kick of the game when Kane joined the Premier League's 100 Club, firing in a penalty after Van Dijk had been adjudged by assistant referee Edward Smart to have kicked Erik Lamela.

Kane had missed from 12 yards in the 87th minute after winning a contentious penalty of his own. Loris Karius saved his spot-kick, which was awarded by referee Jon Moss, after the England international had tumbled over the outstretched arms of Liverpool's goalkeeper.
