After the match, Carragher took to Twitter to praise the performance of three Reds players. Salah got the majority of the attention, but the former Liverpool defender also liked what he saw from Darwin Nunez and Ibrahima Konate.

“Big result for Liverpool,” wrote Carragher. “Mo Salah sensational, Nunez causing chaos as usual and Konate makes the team quicker & more powerful!”

Nunez caused problems for Tottenham’s defence in the first half, forcing a save from Hugo Lloris and providing the assist for Salah’s opening goal. Konate also impressed with a second consecutive start following his return from injury.
