Tottenham 1-1 Liverpool: Sophie Roman Haug scores first Reds goal in draw
Sophie Roman Haug’s first Liverpool goal earned her side a valuable point in a hard-fought game at in-form Tottenham.
A wonderful solo goal by Norway forward Celin Bizet put Spurs on course for a fourth win in five Women’s Super League games.
Bizet started the move from inside her own half in the 27th minute before driving at Liverpool’s defence and producing an impressive finish past Rachael Laws.
Haug, who joined the Reds in September from AS Roma, equalised in the 66th minute with a well-placed header following a super cross from substitute Yana Daniels.
Liverpool could have won it in the closing stages but Gemma Bonner’s volley flew wide.
Tottenham midfielder Olga Ahtinen suffered an injury and was carried off on a stretcher deep into stoppage time while defender Luana Buhler was also injured and had to be replaced.
