Liverpool’s Premier League title hopes were already over, but Harvey Elliott breathed new life into his hopes of making the England squad for Euro 2024 by playing a starring role in Sunday’s entertaining 4-2 win over Tottenham.
Much of the build-up to this Premier League clash understandably focused on Mohamed Salah, after the Egyptian’s row with Jurgen Klopp in last weekend’s 2-2 draw with West Ham, and the Egyptian opened the scoring at Anfield to great acclaim.
However, it was Elliott who stole the show after Andy Robertson had given Liverpool a deserved 2-0 lead, with the Englishman creating the third goal for Cody Gakpo with a sublime cross before putting the outcome beyond all doubt with a stunning strike into the top corner of the Tottenham goal.
The woeful visitors did manage to pull a couple of goals back late on through Richarlison and Son Heung-min, as Jurgen Klopp began to make changes in his penultimate game at Anfield as Liverpool manager, but the Merseysiders held on easily enough to claim a morale-boosting victory.
