When Bobby Decordova- Reid headed the away side ahead on 80 minutes, Jurgen Klopp’s team appeared doomed, but goals by Wataru Endo on 87 minutes and Trent Alexander-Arnold a minute later turned the game around.

Alexander-Arnold’s free shot hit the crossbar and rebounded in off Former Red Harry Wilson scored for Fulham after Bernd Leno put the hosts ahead.

Alexis MacAllister’s spectacular long-range shot restored the Reds’ lead, but Fulham equalized in first-half stoppage time when Kenny Tete scored.

Decordova-Reid appeared to have won it for Marco Silva’s men, but substitute Endo and vice-captain Alexander-Arnold had different plans.

Alexander-Arnold was the hero at the end, and it appeared he’d started the ball rolling for Liverpool when his free-kick found the back of the net on 20 minutes.
