Two warnings, the first to the Premier, the second to Inter: the current Liverpool has an edge and the fifth initial success in a row suggests that it is really the right season to conquer the title, while Tottenham is in a game crisis and results. The 2-1 obtained at Wembley by the Reds, net of the final suffering after the Lamela network, was of a disarming ease: only an excess of selfishness on the part of some players - Wijnaldum and Salah to name names - avoided the Spurs a heavier blow.
At one point Liverpool's superiority was uncontrollable: a real football lesson.
ERRORS SPURS - The Reds managed the match long and wide: the first shot on goal, thrown by Alexander-Arnold at 6 'on free kick, was a warning to the sailors. The 9 'Alderweireld assault was an illusion for the Spurs, with Vorm in goal and the 4-3-2-1 form. Tottenham made several mistakes with the outgoing ball. In the first, by Dier at 22 ', Salah found the ball between his feet and after a length of 20 meters he sought the blow: Vorm replied. Firmino rehearsed shortly thereafter, while Keita legitimized the flattering judgments on his account with a perfect close on Eriksen. On the 29th minute, Tottenham's first shot on goal: Eriksen's free-kick, easy intervention for Alisson.
Mané sought glory in the 35th minute and at the 39th minute Liverpool passed. Milner's corner, Vorm's clumsy exit - accomplice Van Dijk's disturbance - defeated short of the defense and head of Wijnaldum: Vorm's desperate attempt was useless. Historic goal for the number 5 of the Reds: the first away in the Premier.
The restart was restarted with a parade of Vorm on Mané and the post hit by Moura with a sure blow to the 50 'after a splendid slalom of the Brazilian, but at 54' Liverpool found the 2-0. Mané's fugue, the Senegalese low cross, Vertonghen's slip with the ball sent to the post, carambola and Firmino's easy touch, then forced to go out at 74 'for a left eyebrow wound. Tottenham in doll: serial opportunities failed by Mané, Keita and Salah.
The goal of former Romanist Lamela at 92 ', a left-wing torpedo in the small area, came too late. Liverpool flies. The Spurs sink: according to k.o. in a row.
