Liverpool late win Fulham game never forget Jurgen Klopp Anglo Celt

Liverpool's Jurgen Klopp hailed their dramatic 4-3 win over Fulham as 'a game you will never forget' after a late rally.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp was ecstatic after his team's dramatic 4-3 win over Fulham, calling it a "game you will never forget" as they scored two late goals to secure the victory. The hosts were on the verge of their first Anfield defeat since February, but Wataru Endo and Trent Alexander-Arnold's goals in the final four minutes turned the game around, securing an 11th successive home win this season.

Liverpool's vice-captain Alexander-Arnold opened the scoring with a brilliant free-kick, which was ultimately credited as a Bernd Leno own goal. Fulham's Alexis Mac Allister and former Liverpool forward Harry Wilson also scored impressive goals, but shaky defending allowed Fulham to equalize twice. Substitute Bobby De Cordova-Reid thought he had secured a win for Fulham, but Liverpool produced a late rally to snatch the victory.

Klopp expressed his exceptional feelings after the game, acknowledging that the team had some moments of uncertainty but ultimately displayed a strong desire to win. He described the match as an outstanding experience, praising the exceptional goals scored by both teams.

However, the win was marred by an injury to centre-back Joel Matip, who is expected to be sidelined for an extended period with a knee problem. Despite the setback, Klopp emphasized the team's need to overcome the challenge.

Fulham boss Marco Silva expressed frustration at not getting more from the game, acknowledging his team's strong performance and the difficulty of maintaining control against top sides like Liverpool. He highlighted the team's improved goal-scoring form in recent matches and expressed disappointment at conceding a late goal that ultimately decided the match.

The match was a thrilling and unforgettable experience for both teams, showcasing the unpredictable nature of football and the determination of players to secure victory until the final whistle.
