Liverpool Bounces Back with 2-0 Win Over Fulham as Ngumoha Shines

Liverpool halted a three-game losing streak and alleviated pressure on manager Arne Slot with a 2-0 victory over Fulham. Rio Ngumoha made history as Liverpool's youngest Premier League goalscorer at Anfield, aged 17 years and 225 days, with a stunning strike. Mohamed Salah doubled the lead shortly after, scoring his second Premier League goal since November. Despite facing 19 shots and nine corners, Liverpool managed the game without major scares, thanks in part to a rusty Fulham side that struggled to find its rhythm after a three-week break. The win gives Liverpool a four-point cushion in the race for the final Champions League spot, with Chelsea now four points behind. Ngumoha's impressive performance was praised by Sky Sports' Jamie Redknapp, who highlighted the youngster's natural talent and dedication to training. Slot also commended Ngumoha, citing his ability to dominate one-on-one situations and his growing influence in the game. The victory brings some breathing space for Slot, whose side had won just two of their previous eight games in all competitions.
