Liverpool FC, coached by Jürgen Klopp, caused a spectacle in the English Premier League. The German coach’s team defeated FC Fulham 4:3 (2:2) in a very exciting game on Sunday. With their seventh home win in their seventh match, the Reds remain two points behind league leaders Arsenal.
Trent Alexander-Arnold gave the hosts the lead after 20 minutes. England’s international left Fulham keeper Bernd Leno no chance to defend with a perfect free kick from around 25 meters. The ex-Bundesliga goalkeeper played with a bandage on his head since the early stages after a collision with Liverpool’s Luis Diaz.
Somewhat surprisingly, the club from West London equalized 1-1 through Harry Wilson (24th). With the next brilliant long-range shot from Argentina’s world champion Alexis Mac Allister, Liverpool were ahead again (38th). The guests equalized again through Kenny Tete (45th + 3). Goalkeeper Caoimhín Kelleher, who replaced the ailing regular goalkeeper Alisson, didn’t look good.

After a long, quiet second half, things got wild in the final phase. Fulham’s Bobby De Cordova-Reid shocked Liverpool with a header to make it 2-3 (80′). Ex-Stuttgart Wataru Endo (87th) and Arnold again just a minute later turned the match around at Anfield Road.
Chelsea FC prevails against Brighton & Hove Albion
At the same time, Chelsea FC won 3-2 against Brighton & Hove Albion. The Blues won with a brace from Enzo Fernandez (17th, 65th/penalty) and Levi Colwill (21st), while Facundo Buonanotte (43rd) and João Pedro (90th + 2) were successful for the guests. On Sunday evening there will be a duel between Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur in England (playing since 5:30 p.m.).
