Comments:

League position: 7th This was Tottenham Hotspur's first draw in home games in the Premier League since the visit of Fulham on 31 January 2021; longer than any other team currently in the division. Spurs failed in their attempt to win four consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since November 2020. Harry Kane scored his second goal in this Premier League season. It was his 19th goal in 2021-22 in all competitions for club and country.

Comments:

League position: 2nd After 18 games, Liverpool had now scored 50 goals in this Premier League season (conceded 15). Two players (Mohamed Salah [15] and Diogo Jota [ten]) had now scored ten or more league goals before Christmas in a season for the Reds for the first time since 1979-80 in League Division One (David Johnson [11] and Kenny Dalglish [ten]). [c/o Michael Reid] They remained unbeaten in their last 35 games in the Premier League played in December; the longest such run by any team in any month. Andy Robertson was initially shown a yellow card after 76 minutes but was upgraded to a red card following a VAR review.
