As Liverpool keeps pressure on City, Spurs slip far away
LONDON — As Liverpool has pushed Manchester City at the top of the Premier League, Tottenham has slipped far from title contention.
Toby Alderweireld’s 90th-minute own-goal helped Liverpool beat Tottenham 2-1 on Sunday and regain a two-point lead over second-placed City.
Snatching three points so late at Anfield kept the Liverpool faithful dreaming of a first title since 1990 — even with defending champion City having a game in hand.
