Liverpool 4-0 Tottenham Hotspur
Premier League round 32 ushered in a strong dialogue, Liverpool sits at home against Tottenham Hotspur. The first half, first Tottenham defender Kaboul scored own goal by mistake, then Suarez succeeded in scoring a low goal; Second Half Kudiniao long-range ball, free kick Henderson eventually Liverpool 4-0 Tottenham made eight straight league massacre, jumping standings first.
Liverpool burrowed in behind them from the first attack, with Johnson on the overlap crossing the ball at the by-line. Jan Vertonghen should have cut it out, but didn’t and Kaboul got in a dreadful tangle, his angle to the ball all wrong, as he turned it into his own goal. Pressure off and, from Liverpool’s point of view, game on.
Henderson skied a glorious chance over from Sterling's pass and it needed an instinctive save from Lloris to prevent Sturridge scoring with an impudent back-heel. The inevitable fourth arrived when Henderson whipped over a free-kick from the left that sailed through Suárez's legs and into the far corner. "Now you're gonna believe us," has not sounded this convincing at Anfield for over two decades.
"Outstanding team performance and I thought the supporters were brilliant - that's as good as I've heard at Anfield since I've been manager here," Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers said. "It's been a tough period over 20-odd years, and they can see something building here."
"For us, the mantra has always been to focus on the next game, we never get too carried away," Rodgers said.

Liverpool 2-1 Sunderland
In the Premier League 29th round match, Liverpool meet Sunderland at home. Finally Liverpool 2-1 Sunderland, and Liverpool is only one point less than Chelsea now.
Sunderland were obstinate opponents and it was to their credit, rather than Liverpool's fault, that the free-flowing, free-scoring form of Luis Suárez, Daniel Sturridge and co was often contained. Not even Brendan Rodgers's team can swat everyone aside with ease. The visitors almost changed fortunes at both ends of the table when Ki Sung-yueng scored with a 76th-minute header and John O'Shea rose to meet Adam Johnson's free-kick with seconds remaining. A title challenge flashed before Anfield's eyes. The ball flashed across goal and Liverpool held out.
Only six times previously have two players scored 20 league goals in a season for Liverpool – the last coming in 1963-64 through Ian St John and Roger Hunt – but Sturridge joined Luis Suárez over that barrier to help maintain Liverpool’s title challenge. The striker has 12 goals in his last 13 appearances for Liverpool. Gerrard’s role was crucial, however, opening the scoring in fine style and telling Suárez “No more free-kicks for you” after taking on set-piece duties from the Uruguay international.

Livepool 3-2 Fulham: Gerrard penalty
Liverpool went away to game against Fulham. The first half, Kolo Toure scored an own goal, Sturridge scored to tie the ball; second half, Richardsonthe scored for Fulham. Then Kudiniao equalized again. Gerrard scored the lore penalty goal in the stoppage time. Reds 3-2 final opponents.
There were times when Brendan Rodgers, sheltering from the ferocious wind under the lipped roof of the dugout, might have accepted a point for his team's endeavours. They had trailed twice, undermined by the slapdash efforts of their centre-halves, only to rally and force parity. Then, with 17 seconds to play and Tottenham Hotspur breathing down their necks after a saunter on distant Tyneside, Sascha Riether felled Daniel Sturridge in the area and Liverpool had their opportunity. Steven Gerrard, his own display of strength rarely eclipsed at any point, was never going to fluff his lines at the penalty.
“I’m certain, in the first four or five months I was here, we’d have lost that game,” said manager Brendan Rodgers. “That’s something I’ve been trying to build since I’ve been here: now we know we can go to any ground and get goals. The goals got us the three points tonight, rather than our defending.”
The lead lasted just nine minutes, however, as Coutinho cut in from the right before angling a 20-yard drive into the far corner with his left foot.
And there was still time for one last twist as Riether felled Sturridge in the area in the 90th minute, and Gerrard fired into the left-hand corner to secure all three points.
