Liverpool Holds Fulham to 2-2 Draw

Liverpool manager Arne Slot expressed pride in his team's performance following a challenging 2-2 draw against Fulham after Andy Robertson's early red card. Despite dropping points at home, Slot praised the resilience shown by his ten-man squad, which twice came from behind to equalize, with goals from Cody Gakpo and Diogo Jota, the latter scoring in the 86th minute. He acknowledged that the team had faced several adversities during the match yet remained outstanding, highlighting their character and the support from fans. Slot noted that Robertson's knee injury, sustained earlier in the match, contributed to the red card decision after a lengthy VAR check. The draw leaves Liverpool at the top of the Premier League with 36 points from 15 games, five points ahead of Chelsea. While Slot recognized the disappointment in the result, he emphasized that he couldn't have asked for more from his players under the circumstances.
