Skipper Antonee Robinson was disappointed that Fulham failed to capitalise on their numerical advantage as ten-man Liverpool fought back twice to draw an end-to-end encounter at Anfield this afternoon.
The Londoners led twice, through Andreas Pereira and Rodrigo Muniz, but Liverpool claimed a point thanks to second half strikes from Cody Gakpo and Diogo Jota, despite seeing Andy Robertson red carded after seventeen minutes.
Robinson, who was outstanding at left back once again and set up Fulham’s second goal for Muniz, told Match of the Day:
“We were on even footing and then we scored and they got a red card. They took a lot of risks pushing men high and they were rewarded for it, there was space for us on the break but we didn’t capitalise.
“They piled the pressure on and were really positive, They brought Jota on. I felt like Salah was getting the better of me in the first half, I was on a booking but I felt more myself in the second half.
“We’ve been managing to pick up results against top teams, that’s the difference from last year. We’ve got injuries. It’s all about getting everyone back and staying consistent.”
