Goalkeeper Alisson scored an incredible injury-time winner as Liverpool claimed a 2-1 victory against West Brom in their quest to achieve a Premier League top-four finish.

With three points a must and just seconds left of the game, the Brazilian keeper came up for a corner and he rose to glance Trent Alexander-Arnold's delivery into the far corner of the net to send the away side into frenzy.

In an example of extraordinary timing, it is the first time a goalkeeper has scored a competitive goal for Liverpool in their entire history, dating back to 1892.

The stunning moment takes the Reds just a point and a place behind Chelsea in fourth and three points worse off than third-placed Leicester with two games to go.

In another match, Tottenham beat Wolves 2-0.
