Isak on target but injured as Liverpool hang on to defeat Tottenham
Alexander Isak scored Liverpool's opener after coming on at halftime but suffered a potentially serious injury, as Liverpool held on to beat Tottenham 2-1 despite Spurs finishing with nine men.
- On Saturday, December 20, 2025, Alexander Isak came off the bench to score the opener on 56 minutes but was injured in the act as Liverpool FC won 2-1 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, London.
- After Spurs went down to 10 men, Arne Slot brought Isak on at half-time to exploit the advantage, replacing Conor Bradley after a sluggish first half.
- Hugo Ekitike then doubled the lead with a header in the 66th minute, but Richarlison pulled one back in the 83rd and Cristian Romero was sent off, leaving Tottenham with nine men.
- Isak's injury leaves Liverpool sweating over his availability, as the win lifted Liverpool to fifth with 29 points while Tottenham Hotspur fell to 13th on 22 after nine minutes of added time.
- Arne Slot will update on Isak at his post-match press conference, with Liverpool facing Wolves on Saturday 27 December and Leeds United on Thursday 1 January amid Isak's stop-start start in 12 games with two goals.
