In a déjà vu moment at Anfield, Marco Silva’s Fulham side once again suffered a late collapse against Liverpool, this time in the Carabao Cup semi-final. After taking a 1-0 lead through Willian, Fulham conceded two goals in just 102 seconds, with Curtis Jones and Cody Gakpo finding the net.
Despite Silva’s frustration with missed opportunities, especially Bobby Decordova-Reid’s failure to square the ball, Fulham managed to avoid further goals and keep their Carabao Cup hopes alive. The West London side, having already squandered a lead at Anfield in the Premier League last month, faces an uphill battle in the return leg. While a Fulham vs. Middlesbrough final is a possibility, a clash between Chelsea and Liverpool remains more likely.
Jurgen Klopp’s injury-hit Liverpool demonstrated resilience, with key players like Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mo Salah absent. Despite the setback, Fulham still holds a chance, albeit slim, to secure their first major trophy.
Here is the highlight video of Liverpool vs. Fulham, which ended with a 2-1 victory for Liverpool.
