Liverpool Bounce Back with 2-0 Win Over Fulham as Ngumoha Makes History
Liverpool put an end to their three-game losing streak with a 2-0 win against Fulham, as 17-year-old Rio Ngumoha became the club's youngest ever Premier League goalscorer at Anfield. Ngumoha's impressive strike was followed by a classic goal from Mohamed Salah, giving Liverpool a comfortable lead. Despite facing 19 shots and nine corners, Liverpool managed to keep a clean sheet and now look to overcome a 2-0 deficit against PSG in the Champions League. The win gives Liverpool a four-point cushion in the race for the final Champions League spot, with Chelsea facing Manchester City next. Ngumoha's goal was his first since his late winner at Newcastle in August, and it was only Salah's second Premier League goal since November. Liverpool were aided by a rusty Fulham side, who struggled to get going after a three-week break. The victory provides some breathing space for manager Arne Slot, whose side had won just two of their previous eight games in all competitions. Ngumoha was praised by Sky Sports' Jamie Redknapp, who highlighted the youngster's natural talent and dedication to training. Slot also praised Ngumoha, saying he deserves more playing time due to his impressive performances.
