Many Liverpool fans mocked former Tottenham Hotspur manager Tim Sherwood after his reaction to Roberto Firmino's winner on Wednesday.

The Reds earned themselves a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Jose Mourinho's side, which resulted in the Reds returning to the top of the Premier League.

Mohamed Salah gave the hosts the lead thanks to a slice of good fortune from Eric Dier but were quickly pegged back by Son Heung Min before Firmino's 90th-minute winner.

Working as a pundit for Amazon (via The Anfield Wrap), Sherwood stated mere seconds before the final act that he was not worried about Liverpool from corners and believed that his former side's aerial dominance would be able to cope with the dangers.

These comments were being made as Andy Robertson lined up to take the corner - and he was left red-faced when Liverpool clinched the winner from the resulting set-piece.

Unsurprisingly, supporters howled at Sherwood for his television slip up, branding it his very own 'Steve McClaren moment'.
