Before facing Fulham, Liverpool lost five consecutive home games. However, Jurgen Klopp’s teachers and students did not seem to want to end the bad series. After the first half of the first half was played in both attack and match, they were overwhelmed by opponents who were in the relegation zone. Neco Williams’ right-back position was continuously reduced, causing Alisson Becker’s goal to be constantly on alert.

The tragedy came to the defending champion in the last official minutes of the first half. Mohamed Salah, a rare bright spot in Liverpool’s attack, lost the ball at Mario Lemina’s feet right in front of the penalty area. The Gabon midfielder took another kick, before crossing the corner, opening the scoring.

Lemina’s scorer was the sixth time in a row that Liverpool allowed their opponents to open the scoring in the Premier League. Worse still, in the last 13 games in the national league, Klopp’s army scored just one goal.

If the situation cannot be reversed against Fulham, Liverpool are in danger of keeping the gap for the first 4 to seven points. That gap is not easy to bridge when there are only 10 rounds to the season and Anfield’s performance is waning. In wall stance, the team in the red jersey accelerates and spills the team on the Fulham field after the break.

Speed ​​made the difference for Liverpool in both halves, especially when Sadio Mane entered the field. The Senegalese forward only needed five minutes to sniff out the first opportunity, after a mess in the Fulham penalty area, but missed. In the 70th minute, Mane did better. His head shot was in a dangerous position, out of reach of Alphonse Areola, but the ball licked the outer edge of the post.

During the last 15 minutes of play, the home team continuously put the ball into the wings, looking for centers or fixed situations. Since the start of the season, “The Kop” has scored six times on 11 meters, just behind Leicester and Man Utd, but referee Kevin Friend gave the Port City team no luck against Fulham even though Salah fell in the penalty area. at the beginning of the match.

Trailing 0-1, holding the ball by 63%, finishing half as many times and replacing seven spots in the starting lineup, Liverpool were stuck in seventh place. They will tremble in the Leipzig match on March 10, in the second leg of the Champions League round of 16, despite having won 2-0 in the first leg.

With Fulham, three full points in Fulham help Scott Parker teachers and students to have the same 26 points as Brighton in relegation position.
