Spurs pip nine-man Liverpool with injury-time own goal

Tottenham celebrated another jaw-dropping 2-1 stoppage-time victory as Joel Matip's own goal finally broke nine-man Liverpool's resistance.

Saturday evening's box office battle pitted together exciting, resurgent sides that had both begun the new Premier League season unbeaten having bounced back from chastening campaigns last term.

Jurgen Klopp's men were seconds away from leaving north London with a fantastic point after Cody Gakpo cancelled out Son Heung-min's opener in a match which saw the visitors have two players sent off.

Curtis Jones and half-time introduction Diogo Jota were sent off at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, where Spurs finally beat Liverpool at the fifth time of asking.

Just like in their last home game against Sheffield United a fortnight ago, Ange Postecoglou's men triumphed thanks to a stunning stoppage-time conclusion.

This time it was Liverpool defender Matip providing the key touch, inadvertently turning home Pedro Porro's cross to spark wild celebrations in the sixth minute of added time.
