Mario Balotelli had the final say at Anfield with a late winner as Liverpool won 3-2 and moved to within a point of Tottenham.
Lazar Markovic had put Liverpool ahead with a shot Hugo
Lloris ought to have saved and while Harry Kane equalised, Steven
Gerrard restored the lead from the spot after the break following Danny
Rose’s foul on the returning Daniel Sturridge.
Mousa Dembele looked to have grabbed a point when he converted Kane’s centre before Balotelli's big moment.
On a night when the build-up had been dominated by talk of two English
strikers facing off against each other, it was appropriately contrary
that Balotelli should steal the show with a belated entry into this
season's Premier League scoring charts.
After almost 13 hours of league
action for Liverpool and missing seven clear chances without scoring, Balotelli stepped off the bench
to finally find the net.
