Torres: Equaliser
An injury time equaliser from Fernando Torres saved Liverpool from their second home defeat in five days.
Torres headed home in the second minute of added time to earn his side a point in a 2-2 draw with Tottenham at Anfield.
Andrei Voronin had put Liverpool, who lost to Marseille in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday, in front when he poked home on 12 minutes after Tottenham goalkeeper Paul Robinson had spilled a Steven Gerrard free-kick.
However, Robbie Keane pounced in copy cat poaching style either side of the half-time interval to put Spurs in front.
Keane latched on to a Dimitar Berbatov flick on to prod in his first on 45 minutes and with Liverpool still stunned by the equaliser the Spurs striker pounced again after half-time.
On 47 minutes Berbatov again provided the assist as Keane beat Jamie Carragher to the ball to steer past Jose Reina in the Liverpool goal.
Liverpool looked destined for their first Premier League defeat of the season as frustrations grew, but Torres demonstrated why he earned such a high summer price tag as he saved the day.
