In the 18th minute, Dominik Szoboszlai broke the deadlock. The midfielder fired home, giving the home side a deserved lead and igniting the Anfield crowd.
Despite Liverpool’s control, Tottenham tested Alisson Becker multiple times. The Reds’ goalkeeper made several key stops, preserving their slender advantage through the first half.
At the interval, Liverpool held a fragile one-goal lead. Tottenham showed glimpses of their attacking threat, suggesting the second half could bring more drama.
