Liverpool survived a late score to win 2-1 at Tottenham on Saturday.

The win maintained their 100% start to the season and secured victory in each of their first five league fixtures for the first time in 27 years.

Georginio Wijnaldum's looping first-half header, awarded by goalline technology, set Jurgen Klopp's side on their way before Roberto Firmino hammered home from close range.

Erik Lamela scored late on to set up a tense finish, but they could not create another clear chance to equalise.

The result means Spurs have suffered back-to-back league defeats for the first time since the final two fixtures of the 2015-16 season.

On his goal, Wijnaldum revealed there was a plan to put pressure on Spurs reserve goalkeeper Michel Vorm.

Wijnaldum says it was a "plan" to surround Vorm as Liverpool did for the first goal.

"It was a plan. We trained on it before. I thought I would just head it as high as possible as there was a lot of players in the box. I had a feeling it was in straight away but then the referee gave it."
