Diogo Jota scored a late equalizer to secure a 2-2 draw for Liverpool against Fulham at Anfield after Andy Robertson’s early red card left the Premier League leaders on the back foot.
Liverpool fell behind in the 11th minute to Andreas Pereira’s deflected volley and were reduced to 10 men in the 17th minute when Robertson was sent off for a professional foul.
Cody Gakpo’s 47th-minute header equalized, but Rodrigo Muniz restored Fulham’s lead in the 76th minute. Jota’s 86th-minute strike salvaged a point, extending Liverpool’s unbeaten streak to 19 matches across all competitions.
Despite the draw, Liverpool remain five points clear at the top, though Chelsea could reduce the gap by beating Brentford on Sunday.
