Reaction'It's something special to get a winner' - Jota and Trent reflect on Spurs victory
The Reds emerged winners from a topsy-turvy Premier League encounter that saw the visitors equalise in added time, before Jürgen Klopp's men grabbed the spoils in dramatic fashion.
Liverpool had earlier raced into a three-goal lead after 15 minutes thanks to efforts from Curtis Jones, Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah, with the latter converting from the penalty spot.
Spurs, though, fought to level the encounter in L4 in the third minute of injury time through Richarlison, though substitute Jota struck at the Kop end just 99 seconds later to provide the all-important difference.
Post-match, Jota and Alexander-Arnold gave their verdicts on the game to Sky Sports. Read on to see what the pair had to say...
Liverpool 4-3 Tottenham: Highlights
Diogo Jota
On keeping his cool at the crucial moment...
We made it harder for ourselves after [being] 3-0 up. We need to avoid being in this situation, but then in the end it will be a day to remember for all the people that were in the stands and especially for me, of course. Getting the winner is always something special.
On the winning moment...
I think everyone dreams to score a winner [in the] last minute. I saw the ball landing, I thought he might pass it to the 'keeper and I believed that I could score. It's fantastic for me.
On what the manager said to him when he came on...
Everyone wants to defend, obviously, but at that moment it was important to get second balls to control the game better. That's what he asked, I think we did that when I came on, but then the second goal gave Tottenham confidence. This is the Premier League and it's hard to manage, but in the end we got the win and that was the most important thing.
Trent Alexander-Arnold
On the victory...
It's crazy - what a game. These are the games we love to play in. We made it hard for ourselves, but a fantastic ending to the game. Stuff that you love to see, to be honest!
On whether the overriding feeling at the end was one of relief...
It's not so much relief; just celebration, to be honest. When you concede so late on an equaliser, you're trying to push to get the winner again. We go from disappointment to sheer joy in a matter of a couple of minutes, it's an outstanding way to finish a game.
On Liverpool's opening 15 minutes to the game...
We were all over them, that was our game plan. There's a lot more stuff we need to learn, we can't be almost drawing after being 3-0 up. That's not what top sides do, we need to put the game to bed, which we thought we did, but they hung on in there and fought back. Fair play to them, but it's about winning games, and that's what we've done today and that's all that matters.
On his hybrid midfield role...
It's a full team system, it's not just my position that's changed. Everyone within the system has to change and adapt to it, but we're enjoying our football and there's still things to learn. We're enjoying creating chances and dominating games. It's going well - we need to see at the end of the season.
