Alisson Becker enjoyed a post-match embrace with Tottenham Hotspur forward Richarlison after Liverpool's festive thumping of Spurs, as they thrashed the north Londoners 6-3.

Arne Slot's side managed to open up a four-point lead over second-placed Chelsea on Sunday – and the Reds still have a game in hand on their nearest challengers due to the away trip to Everton being postponed earlier in the month.

While there was plenty to smile about for Liverpool, Tottenham were left to digest their 8th Premier League defeat of the campaign.

Despite the result and the many tetchy moments between the two teams during the game, Alisson had a pleasant embrace with former Toffee, Richarlison, in the tunnel.

Despite the outcome of the game, Richarlison was pleased to catch up with the goalkeeper, as captured on Liverpool's tunnel cam and shared on YouTube.

Ex-Everton forward Richarlison was spotted standing in the corridor between the changing rooms in the tunnel, wearing a large Tottenham winter coat with his hood up.

After a short while, Richarlison and Alisson returned to their respective changing rooms.

The pair have been friends for many years, having played alongside each other for the Brazilian national team.

Richarlison and Alisson were regular starters for Brazil in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, with the Tottenham forward scoring one of the best goals in the tournament.

At the moment, there is not much to cheer for Richarlison or any of his Tottenham team-mates, though, as Spurs will be down in 11th in the Premier League table when the Christmas puddings are dished out.

However, despite pumping six goals past one of the most established clubs in the Premier League, Arne Slot was not completely satisfied by the performance.

The Dutchman said: "For 60 minutes we did everything we had to do, we were comfortable and good with the ball.

We thought it was enough but Tottenham have far too much quality and they're able to create and score.

"Against every team, there's an opportunity.
