Liverpool made it five Premier League wins from as many games with this afternoon's 2-1 win against Tottenham Hotspur in Wembley.
Although Jurgen Klopp will be curious as to why his side couldn't convert more of the many chances they created, the closing five minutes of today's game very nearly undone what was a landmark win for Klopp's side.
After last year's disappointing away record in the Premier League, the German will be thrilled that such a trend has been bucked so early on in the 2018/19 season.
However, at 2-0 ahead and cruising, Spurs' Erik Lamela somewhat dampened Liverpool's satisfaction with his 93rd minute goal. From there, Spurs applied the expected pressure for the short amount of time that remained.
A long-throw in from Danny Rose into the Liverpool box initially appeared to have been dealt with, however, as Son Heung-min found himself with the ball at his feet bearing down on the Liverpool goal, the incoming Sadio Mane appeared to make contact with the South Korean.
Not enough to convince referee Michael Oliver that a penalty should be awarded, a retrospective look at the challenge appears to suggest Liverpool were rather fortunate to come out of the situation unscathed.
Needless to say, plenty spotted the incident and were left bemused as to how Oliver had missed the tackle.
Penalty!! Spurs robbed of a last ditch pen at Wembley. Mane kicked Son’s standing leg and made him miskick with the other. Foul. Penalty. Watch it back. #thfc #THFCvLFC

That actually should be a pen. Mane surely hit Son's left leg there?! Would have been totally undeserved but surprised the commentators haven't seen it. #COYS #THFC #TOTLIV
