Liverpool left the door open for Manchester City to go top of the Premier League after a lacklustre performance in their 1-1 draw at West Ham
Sadio Mane gave Jurgen Klopp's side the lead in controversial fashion at the London Stadium as James Milner was in an offside position before he crossed for the forward to score (22)
But Liverpool's lead lasted just six minutes as Michail Antonio received Felipe Anderson's disguised free-kick to flash in the equaliser (28)
Declan Rice and Mark Noble both had good opportunities to complete the turnaround before Divock Origi wasted a glorious chance to snatch it for Liverpool in stoppage time
The result stretches Liverpool's lead at the top to three points, but City would move top on goal difference if they beat Everton at Goodison Park on Wednesday
Javier Hernandez fired the first warning sign three minutes in, as he received Noble's pass before shooting wide of Alisson's left-hand post
 Aaron Cresswell was next to go close with a rasping left-foot drive that narrowly missed the target, but Liverpool then broke the deadlock against the run of play
Adam Lallana showed great skill to escape Cresswell, but Milner received his pass a yard offside before his cross evaded Issa Diop to allow Mane to fire beyond Lukasz Fabianski
West Ham's response was immediate
 A foul from Fabinho allowed Anderson to find Antonio in the box and the 28-year-old forward flashed in the fourth goal of his career against Liverpool
Three minutes before the interval, Liverpool's defence was again vulnerable from a West Ham free-kick as Anderson found Rice unmarked, but the youngster's header was off target
Mane went close again before the interval with his header saved by Fabianski, but there were few notable openings in a cagey second period
Noble lashed over from Robert Snodgrass' cross with 17 minutes remaining as Liverpool struggled to break down West Ham's dogged defence, but it looked like the visitors would snatch victory when Keita found substitute Origi in the third minute of stoppage time
The Belgian had been the hero with his injury-time winner in the Merseyside derby earlier in the season but could only scuff his shot at Fabianski this time as two points slipped out of Liverpool's grasp
 "We returned to the pace we have shown in previous games
 You can't play in any games if you don't have high pace
"After we beat Arsenal, it was similar work that we did today
 We created more chances tonight, but having lost those three games, the team we saw tonight is the team we must try to play from now until the end of the season
" "It was not our best performance of course because we came up against difficult opponents
"We had good moments, coming through the channels and scored the goal, which I've now been told is offside
 This explains a little bit the second half, because I think the referee knew at half-time
"He knew it for sure at half-time, and then you saw a lot of strange situations
 They were not decisive but just rhythm breakers
 That obviously didn't help us
"Liverpool have struggled at right back in Trent Alexander-Arnold's absence, and West Ham targeted that area with Anderson causing Milner countless problems
 In the first half in particular, the Brazilian created three chances, more than any other player on the pitch
His delivery from wide areas instilled fear in the Liverpool defence and he was again at the heart of West Ham's counter-attacks in the second period, retaining the ball to ease the pressure on his defenders
 After a recent dip, here was Anderson back to his best
West Ham travel across London to play Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Saturday while Liverpool will host Bournemouth
