Fulham 1-1 Liverpool: Salah strikes but champions miss chance to go top

SMA NEWS – Premier League

Mohamed Salah’s spot-kick rescued a point for Liverpool at Fulham, where the hosts posed a big threat to the Merseyside giants.

Liverpool missed the chance to go outright top of the Premier League as they had to come from behind to earn a 1-1 draw at Fulham.

The hosts had taken a deserved lead in a first half they dominated when Bobby De Cordova-Reid struck home in emphatic fashion after finding space in the area.

Jurgen Klopp’s visiting side continued to concede chances from there but, after getting in at half-time just one down, they found a way back into the game in the second period through Mohamed Salah’s penalty.

There was no late siege on the hosts’ goal, however, as Fulham held on for a point that continues their recent revival.
