Report focus
Structure, progression and set pieces
Liverpool took an early lead from the penalty spot before controlling the match effectively. Tottenham had long spells of possession but struggled to turn that control into clear chances against a compact defensive structure.
- Build-up: Full-backs supplied width when central routes were blocked.
- Pressing: A vertical gap appeared when the first line was bypassed.
- Set pieces: Defensive corners used a mixed zonal and man-marking structure.
