# Player Ratings: Tottenham 1-1 Liverpool

Liverpool left White Hart Lane with just a point after Danny Rose’s equaliser cancelled out James Milner’s first-half penalty, the game ending 1-1.

Whilst a draw at Tottenham isn’t the worst result, Liverpool will be disappointed not to have won the game after being the better side for the majority of the game.

Phillipe Coutinho missed a sitter in the opening minutes, and Spurs looked a bit better for a short spell before Liverpool took control and the Reds fully deserved to go ahead.

Erik Lamela’s foul on Roberto Firmino gave Liverpool a spot-kick, one which Milner converted.

Sadio Mane thought he’d doubled the lead in the second half, but Adam Lallana was adjudged to have been fractionally offside in the build up, so the goal was ruled out.

Rose got the equaliser after getting on the end of an Eric Dier cross and beating Simon Mignolet at his near post.

There were chances for both teams in the closing minutes, but neither side could get the winner.
