"Liverpool striker Alexander Isak finally scored the kind of goal in a big game that the club were expecting when they signed him in the summer, only to immediately have to go off injured. Isak did well to angle his run and finish with real quality on his left foot, but it was instantly clear that he hurt himself in doing so."
"Unfortunately, it's not been Isak's year so far at Liverpool, as he's struggled for both fitness and form since sealing his big move. So, in a moment to sum up his time at Anfield so far, the 26-year-old had to be taken off as the injury was too bad for him to continue against Tottenham.

"Luckily for Liverpool, they also signed another striker this summer in the form of Hugo Ekitike, with the young Frenchman proving superb since joining from Eintracht Frankfurt. So even with Isak out, there shouldn't be too much concern up front for Arne Slot, as Ekitike has been on fire in front of goal this season and headed in Liverpool's second in this game."
Alexander Isak scored a well-angled left-foot goal in the 56th minute but injured himself while celebrating the strike and had to be taken off. The 26-year-old has struggled for fitness and form since his big transfer to Liverpool and required treatment after the match. Hugo Ekitike, signed this summer from Eintracht Frankfurt, headed Liverpool's second ten minutes later and has been prolific recently. Ekitike has five goals in his last three Premier League games and 12 in all competitions this season, providing attacking cover for manager Arne Slot while Isak recovers.
