Liverpool Stunned by Late Fulham ComebackLiverpool Stunned by Late Fulham Comeback In a dramatic turn of events, Liverpool suffered a stunning 2-1 defeat to relegation-threatened Fulham in a pulsating Premier League encounter at Anfield on Sunday. The Reds had taken the lead in the 32nd minute through Mohamed Salah, who converted a penalty after Fulham defender Tayo Edun had brought down Sadio Mané. Liverpool looked comfortable for much of the match, controlling possession and creating several chances. However, Fulham refused to give up and managed to draw level in the 72nd minute. Substitute Antonee Robinson broke down the left flank and crossed for Fabio Carvalho, who fired a low shot into the bottom corner. With Liverpool pushing for a winner, Fulham struck again in the 83rd minute. Manor Solomon outpaced Trent Alexander-Arnold and found the unmarked Andreas Pereira, who coolly slotted the ball past Alisson Becker. Fulham held on for a famous victory that lifts them out of the relegation zone and leaves Liverpool’s title hopes in the balance. The Reds missed the chance to move within four points of league leaders Arsenal and now sit sixth in the standings. Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp expressed his disappointment after the match, saying: “We were in the driving seat but then we didn’t move up the gears. We had enough chances to score more goals, but we didn’t take them. We can’t be happy with this result.” Fulham manager Marco Silva was delighted with his team’s performance, saying: “It’s a huge victory for us. We played with courage and determination, and we deserved the three points. We knew it would be difficult against Liverpool, but we stayed in the game and got our reward.” The result is a major setback for Liverpool, who have now lost three of their last four Premier League matches. Fulham’s victory, on the other hand, is a massive boost to their survival hopes.
