Fulham and Liverpool played out an entertaining 2-2 draw at the Craven Cottage on Sunday as both teams scored in the second half stoppage time.
The hosts broke the deadlock with their first attempt of the game in the 17th minute as Raul Jimenez’s clever touch released Harry Wilson, whose low drive into the bottom corner was eventually awarded following a VAR review.
The equaliser arrived in the 57th minute when Conor Bradley’s throughball was tucked away by Florian Wirtz, whose goal was given following a VAR review after it was initially ruled out for offside.
Liverpool survived a scare when Wilson’s lofted attempt clipped the top of the crossbar, and looked to have snatched all three points when Jeremie Frimpong’s deep cross was turned in by Cody Gakpo.
Yet, there was to be another dramatic twist, as substitute Harrison Reed unleashed a stunning long-range effort that arrowed into the top corner, securing the hosts a last-gasp point.
With the draw Fulham have 28 points, while Liverpool move on to 34 points.
