There was action at Anfield from the very first whistle. Bernd Leno spilled Dominik Szoboszlai's powerful drive from the edge of the box and Luis Diaz pounced on the ball before being brought down by the Fulham goalkeeper, allowing Mohamed Salah to tap into the empty net. However, the flag went up against Diaz and a VAR check confirmed the decision.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp reacts to Liverpool's 4-3 home win over Fulham.
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp to Sky Sports:
"I don't think I ever saw a game with this amount of beautiful goals. But because we were a bit dumb we almost gave it away. In the first half when we gave the goals away the defending was awful.
"Football is decided in details. We were really good in the game and played a lot of good stuff but it was 2-2 at half time and deserved.
"They were there and scored a wonderful goal and it was 3-2 and everyone in a Fulham shirt thought that was it maybe and then we throw back with two worldies.

Former Norwich and West Ham striker Dean Ashton on Sky Sports News
"This feels like the start of the transition of Alexander-Arnold going from a right-back to a midfielder.
"Not only a midfield player who just drops deep and helps dictate play with a wide variety of passes, but a midfielder who gets in the box and scores goals.
"It's unfair to compare him to Steven Gerrard but Gerrard to did start deep and got further and further up the pitch as his career went on.
"I don't see why Trent can't have a similar influence in terms of goals. The technique he has and the way he can finish, there's no reason why he shouldn't play further forward and get more goals.
Analysis from Sky Sports' Joe Shread:
With Liverpool chasing a late winner, Jurgen Klopp raised eyebrows with his decision to bring Wataru Endo on for Ryan Gravenberch.
But the idea behind replacing a No 8 with a holding midfielder was clear. Trent Alexander-Arnold, who had already been moved into that holding role, was now free to play as an advanced midfielder.
That Klopp sought to free Alexander-Arnold from his defensive responsibilities when Liverpool needed a goal was telling. It's now clear that, along with Mohamed Salah, the right-back is the one that makes their attack tick.
Dean Ashton, speaking on Sky Sports News, said: "It's unfair to compare him to Steven Gerrard but Gerrard did start deep and got further up the pitch as his career went on.
"I don't see why Trent can't have a similar influence."
Fulham went 3-2 ahead through Bobby De Cordova-Reid in the 80th minute - the latest Liverpool have ever fallen behind in a Premier League match that they went on to win.
Liverpool have won each of their opening seven home matches of a top-flight season for a seventh time, and third of the Premier League era, after 2019-20 (first 17) and 2020-21 (seven).
This was the first time Liverpool both scored and conceded 2+ goals in the first half of a Premier League game at Anfield since September 2020 v Leeds, and the first time Fulham did so home or away in the division since October 2018 at Cardiff.
Fulham are winless in seven away Premier League games (drawing three and losing four), losing back-to-back games on the road in the league for the first time since April/May last season.
