Spurs’ Late Equaliser Extends Liverpool’s Slide, Pressure Builds on Slot

Boos at Anfield signal rising scrutiny on Arne Slot before a pivotal Champions League second leg.

Overview

  • Liverpool were held 1-1 by Tottenham at Anfield after Richarlison equalised in stoppage time, cancelling out Dominik Szoboszlai’s first-half free kick.
  • The Reds have now conceded a league-high eighth goal in the 90th minute or later and sit fifth on 49 points from 30 games, with 11 points dropped from winning positions.
  • Sections of home supporters booed at full-time, and Slot called the frustration understandable while urging a response on Wednesday.
  • Jamie Carragher labeled the display awful and questioned squad profile, while Roy Keane called Liverpool bad champions and queried mentality and cohesion.
  • Liverpool host Galatasaray next in a Champions League second leg trailing 1-0, a tie widely framed by reporters as a make-or-break stretch for Slot’s season.
