The game restarted after the interval in similar fashion to the first with much of the play coming in midfield.
Tottenham, though, produced a clever move to edge in front in the 52nd minute via Bethany England.
A ball over the top down the left found the run of Amanda Nilden and her first-time low ball allowed the striker to cushion a shot into the net.
Liverpool attempted a response almost instantly through Enderby but she was only able to drag her shot wide of the post after good play from Cornelia Kapocs and Ceri Holland.
The hosts applied pressure on the Reds in the closing stages, forcing Fisk into two well-timed challenges to keep them at bay.
In their search for a leveller, substitute Sofie Lundgaard saw a prodded effort blocked from close range after a clever run and cross from Holland on the right.
However, following a lengthy delay in added time due to an injury to Enderby, Kapocs went closest in Liverpool’s quest for a point, though her effort flew over the bar from inside the area with Gareth Taylor’s side beaten.
