The two met in the Premier League on Saturday

Southampton v Liverpool: Premier League match preview

Liverpool made light of their exhaustive midweek jaunt to Turkey to post a club-record 11th straight Premier League win with a 2-1 success at Southampton.

Goals from Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino kept up their impressive domestic record as they have won every game going back to the Merseyside derby on March 3 and are unbeaten in 19 overall.

This win must be as pleasing as any for Jurgen Klopp given his side did not land back in this country until 4am on Thursday morning following their penalty shootout Super Cup win over Chelsea in Istanbul on Wednesday night.

No Goal! Manchester City 2-2 Tottenham  

90+4 minutes

VAR, as it did in the Champions League quarter-final between these two, intervenes again! Laporte is adjudged to have handled the ball moments before Jesus scored. City's frantic celebrations are again cut short.

Full time: That's it! A late corner comes to nothing and Michael Oliver blows his whistle. It's greeted by boos from the home fans. City's players are furious, as is Pep Guardiola. VAR will again be the main topic of discussion in the aftermath of this one.

City will wonder how on earth they haven't won this. Aside from the ruled out goal, Guardiola's side had countless chances in the second half to score a third. Their 15-game winning streak is ended, and Tottenham earn a welcome point on the road.

Hugo Lloris, to Sky Sports: 

​"To be honest I thought it was a goal. It's a bit unlucky for City. Anyone can have a different interpretation of the moment. But we are very pleased with the point.

"I looked to the screen and realised there was a handball which is good for us and unlucky for City but there are many games ahead. For now we just need to enjoy the moment."
