Richarlison saves Tudor in extra time, but Tottenham are not out of the woods yet: first point for the former Juventus manager

Liverpool were denied victory in the 90th minute by a goal from the Brazilian striker, but Tudor is still on a knife-edgeIgor Tudor took charge of Tottenham around a month ago, but the turnaround never materialised; indeed, reports are emerging from England in the last few hours of a further managerial change for the Spurs. Three defeats from three league matches against Arsenal, Fulham and Crystal Palace, plus a heavy 5-2 defeat in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 against Atlético Madrid. Tudor went into today’s tricky clash at Anfield against Liverpool with his back against the wall. It was a difficult match for Vicario and his teammates, who found themselves a goal down after just 18 minutes. A fifth consecutive defeat for the former Juventus manager seemed imminent, but at the death in stoppage time came their first league point – though it does little to lift Tottenham out of the relegation zone.The atmosphere was tense in north London, where rumours had already been circulating on the eve of the Liverpool match of widespread mistrust amongst the players towards new manager Tudor. However, after the Reds took a 1-0 lead through Szoboszlai, Tottenham fought back, and in the 90th minute Richarlison scored a crucial goal for the Spurs’ survival bid. A long ball from Vicario, controlled and laid off by Kolo Muani, and the Brazilian striker slotted the ball past Alisson at his near post. A fist-pumping but restrained celebration from Tudor, who knows Tottenham still have a long way to go.Add GOAL.com as a preferred source on Google to see more of our reporting
