Liverpool secured their first Premier League away win of the season as they held off a late fightback to earn a 2-1 victory at Tottenham Hotspur.

The Reds took a two-goal lead into the half-time break in London thanks to a well-taken brace from Mohamed Salah, the second coming courtesy of a poor Eric Dier mistake.

But they were pegged back by a resurgent Spurs with 20 minutes remaining, Harry Kane netting brilliantly from a tight angle after being fed by the returning Dejan Kulusevski.

However, despite Antonio Conte’s men dominating the remainder of the game, they were unable to pull off another fightback in the same week in which they fought from behind to beat Marseille in a crucial UEFA Champions League match.

And that allowed Liverpool to hold on for a win that could even reignite their faint hopes of a top-four finish after a poor start to the season.
