Trent Alexander-Arnold's Late Heroics Secure Dramatic Win for Reds
In a captivating encounter at Anfield, Liverpool emerged victorious with a 4-3 scoreline against Fulham, thanks to Trent Alexander-Arnold's decisive 88th-minute strike. Jurgen Klopp's team twice took the lead in an exhilarating first half, only to see Fulham respond on both occasions.
The excitement unfolded as Alexander-Arnold's remarkable free-kick found the net off Bernd Leno in the 20th minute, but Harry Wilson swiftly leveled the score for the visitors at the 24th minute mark.
The spectacle continued with Alexis Mac Allister's sensational volley (38) restoring the Reds' advantage, only to face another setback as VAR awarded Kenny Tete's equalizer in injury time (45+3).
The second half witnessed Liverpool pushing for a winner, with Darwin Nunez denied by the crossbar. However, a twist in the tale occurred in the 80th minute when substitute Bobby Decordova-Reid headed home Tom Cairney's cross, putting Fulham in the lead.
Undeterred, Liverpool staged a late comeback with two goals in as many minutes. Wataru Endo (87) and Trent Alexander-Arnold (88), who had also scored the crucial equalizer against Manchester City the previous week, secured the dramatic turnaround, solidifying Liverpool's resilience and securing the thrilling victory.
