A mistake by goalkeeper Alisson Becker gave Tottenham a equalizer through Son Heung-min in the 74th minute, but Liverpool became angry due to controversial arbitration cases.
Harry Kane ended his two-month fast by giving Tottenham the lead after 13 minutes, and Antonio Conte’s team had to consolidate their advantage before Diogo Jota equalized for Liverpool.
Andy Robertson put Liverpool ahead in the 69th minute, as the team looked on its way to a record ninth consecutive win in all competitions.
But Son took advantage of goalkeeper Alisson’s mistake when the ball slipped in front of his foot to equalize 2-2, before Liverpool completed the match with ten men to send Robertson off after a violent intervention.
Liverpool enter the Christmas period three points behind leaders Manchester City, who beat Newcastle United 4-0 earlier on Sunday.
Tottenham is seventh and has 26 points from 15 matches.
