Liverpool beat Tottenham 3-2 at Anfield to move up to sixth in the Premier League. It was the Reds' first victory over top half opposition this season.

Luis Suarez gave Liverpool the lead in the first half with a cute near post finish after a deft pass from Luis Enrique.

But Jan Vertonghen scored either side of half time to put Spurs 2-1 up.

Liverpool came roaring back however as Stewart Downing made it 2-2 after an error from Spurs keeper Hugo Lloris.

Steven Gerrard scored the winner from the penalty spot eight minutes from time after Suarez was felled in the box by Benoit Assou-Ekotto.
