Fulham vs Liverpool: Late drama at Craven Cottage as Reed's potential goal-of-the-season strike stuns Reds

The Reds head into the match having improved on their form, with three wins and one draw in their last four Premier League games.

They were held to a draw against Leeds during the week, starting the new year without a win, and need a boost against Fulham before facing Arsenal on Thursday.

However, they were unable to get back to winning ways, settling for a 2-2 draw against the Cottagers in a dramatic fashion. 

Liverpool's squad saw some changes as Cody Gakpo returned to the lineup, though Hugo Ekitike is absent due to a minor fitness concern and Jeremie Frimpong is relegated to the bench.

For Fulham, Marco Silva implemented three changes, resulting in a shift to a starting formation that utilises five defenders, as reported by BBC.

An early pressure from the Cottagers gave them the lead in the 17th minute after Harry was played onside by Virgil van Dijk before he finished brilliantly into the bottom corner.

They took the lead into the halftime break, but entering the second half, Liverpool restored parity after a close-range finish from Florian Wirtz, which was cleared by VAR.

With the game heading into injury time, both teams produced a dramatic moment. Gakpo latched onto Jeremie Frimpong's delicious ball towards the far post to give Liverpool the lead.

However, in the 97th minute, Harrison Reed picked up the ball about 30 yards from goal and unleashed a venomous strike into the top corner to equalise for Fulham.

Reed’s potential goal of the season strike sealed a 2-2 draw for the Cottagers, but leaves the Reds in disarray ahead of their clash against Arsenal.
