Cody Gakpo scored what looked to be a game-winner in stoppage time, but a goal at the death from Fulham’s Harrison Reed forced Livererpool to settle for an entertaining but disappointing 2-2 draw at Craven Cottage.

The Substitutes
Frimpong (4/10): Bad giveaway and poor clearance in limited action
Chiesa (6/10): Late sub with little impact
