Liverpool finally picked up a Premier League win in 2017 and boy was it a great performance from the Reds. Jurgen Klopp’s men were brilliant as they tore apart Tottenham and it was their talisman, Sadio Mane that did the damage.
The Senegal star scored a first-half brace which was enough for the three points but in all honesty, it could have been a lot more for the side. The win saw them move up to fourth, at least until Manchester City play and it also gave them hope of making the top four come the end of the season.
We look back at the game and share the best Twitter reactions.
Firmino is the most hardworking player in Liverpool. Followed by Adam Lallana

As much as Mané’s speed made a difference in the first half, this game highlighted what Hendo-Gini-Lallana can do in CM at their best.

Sadio Mane will get the plaudits & was the matchwinner. But today showed how important, the undervalued Gini Wijnaldum is to Liverpool
