Anfield witnessed a thrilling 2-2 draw between Liverpool and Fulham, as the Reds fought back twice despite being reduced to ten men on Saturday in the English Premier League.
Andy Robertson’s dismissal just six minutes after Andreas Pereira’s stunning volley left Liverpool with an uphill battle. Yet, the home side showed resilience. Cody Gakpo leveled the score two minutes into the second half, igniting hope among the fans.
Fulham, however, reclaimed their lead 14 minutes from time when Rodrigo Muniz capitalized on Antonee Robinson’s second assist of the match. The tension at Anfield escalated as time dwindled.
In a dramatic finale, Diogo Jota marked his return from injury by netting Liverpool’s equalizer just four minutes from the end. Set up by Darwin Nunez, Jota’s cool finish salvaged a point for Arne Slot’s side, helping them avoid a second league defeat of the season.
With this draw, Liverpool now sits at 36 points from 15 games, maintaining a five-point cushion over second-place Chelsea.
