Premier League roundup: Spurs stutter to draw in title race

Second place Tottenham Hotspur was held to a 1-1 draw by Liverpool at Anfield, a result that could see Leicester stretch its lead to seven points with victory over Southampton Sunday.

Philippe Coutinho had given Liverpool the lead five minutes into the second half.

The Brazilian played a one-two with Daniel Sturridge on the edge of the penalty area, before latching onto the return pass and slotting the ball low past Hugo Lloris in the Tottenham goal.

Liverpool's lead lasted just over 10 minutes, however, as Harry Kane hauled Spurs level with a brilliant turn and shot -- his 22nd Premier League goal of the season.

Christian Eriksen did well to keep the ball alive on the byline, before hooking it into Kane who rolled Dejan Lovren with ease and drilled into the bottom corner.

There were chances for both sides to snatch all three points late on but a brilliant save from Simon Mignolet denied Eriksen's long-range effort, before Coutinho shot inches wide at the other end.
