Two goals in two minutes from Sadio Mane inside the first 20 minutes effectively killed the game off as a contest. Though Liverpool were much the stronger side throughout their 2-0 victory, Tottenham were the architects of their own downfall by giving away possession inside their own half and they could have gone into the break three or four down. The second half was a scrappy affair with Spurs still failing to find any rhythm and Liverpool content to see the game out for their first Premier League win of 2017.
Positives
Hard to think of one.
