Liverpool dealt Tottenham another blow in their faltering quest for a top-four finish in the Premier League, triumphing convincingly at Anfield.
With Aston Villa's stumble against Brighton offering Spurs a chance to revive their Champions League aspirations, they instead suffered a fourth consecutive defeat as Liverpool rediscovered their form following a recent slump.
Mohamed Salah, despite recent disagreements with manager Jurgen Klopp, opened the scoring with a header from Cody Gakpo's cross. Andy Robertson capitalized on Vicario's save from Salah's shot to double the lead just before halftime.
Tensions simmered within the Spurs camp, with Vicario intervening between Romero and Royal as they headed into the break. Unfortunately for Postecoglou's men, the second half brought no respite as Liverpool dominated proceedings.
Gakpo netted the third goal from Harvey Elliott's pass early on, while Elliott himself unleashed a stunning curling shot from 20 yards into the top corner in the 59th minute.
Liverpool's momentary lapse allowed substitute Richarlison and Heung-Min Son to find the net for Spurs, offering a glimmer of hope.
However, it proved insufficient as Liverpool maintained a seven-point lead over Tottenham, occupying fourth place with a game in hand. Though anxiety briefly gripped Anfield towards the end, Liverpool's overall display showcased their dominant and menacing style.
Salah, despite recent clashes with Klopp, demonstrated his prowess with a goal and an assist, while Elliott's standout performance stole the spotlight.
In addition to setting up Gakpo's goal, he unleashed a powerful shot past Vicario for Liverpool's fourth. Looking ahead, the match against Wolves on the season's final day could serve as a poignant preview of Klopp's farewell after his illustrious nine-year tenure.
The emotional exchange of praise between Klopp and the fans at The Kop underscored the significance of the impending goodbye. While Liverpool's hopes of multiple trophies this season have dimmed, the stage is set for a heartfelt farewell at Anfield in two weeks' time.
