West Ham boss Sam Allardyce hit out at both the Tottenham players and referee Jon Moss after a late Harry Kane equaliser cost the Hammers another win at White Hart Lane.

The visitors, looking for a third straight win at Tottenham but just a second Premier League victory since Christmas, were deservedly leading 2-0 with just 10 minutes remaining thanks to goals from Cheikhou Kouyate and Diafra Sakho.

But Danny Rose struck to reduce the arrears before Kane was brought down in the box by Alex Song in the last moments of five minutes of stoppage time.

The England Under-21 international dusted himself down to take the resulting penalty, only to see it saved by Adrian. Kane, though, was on hand to score the rebound.

Asked if Moss should have blown for full-time immediately after Adrian had saved the penalty, Allardyce replied: “The answer to that is yes, but he wouldn’t be brave enough to do that at home would he?

“He’ll say there was still two seconds to go. He will say when the penalty was taken, there were five seconds left, when the rebound came off there were three second left. So we’re doing NFL now aren’t we? I’d like a time-keeper to be perfectly honest with you."

Jordan Henderson hailed a perfect away performance from Liverpool as they secured a victory tinged with controversy at Southampton.

Saints dominated both possession and chances, but Liverpool scored from their first two shots on target to win 2-0 and climb to sixth in the Premier League.

Henderson said: “It’s a big win. We knew coming here it would be difficult, they’re a good side and we knew we’d have to be at our best.

“With the quality we have we know we can hurt teams going forward. From defence right through the team I thought we were outstanding. It was the perfect away performance.”

Coutinho did the damage, taking aim from 25 yards with a dipping drive which flew into the top left corner, clipping the underside of the bar.

Southampton, as in so many recent games at St Mary’s, were struggling to break down the opposition and fell further behind in the 73rd minute.

Matt Targett, back in the side after a head injury, slipped when attempting to clear a Alberto Moreno cross and Sterling pounced, firing past Fraser Forster.
