Craven Cottage Comedy of Errors…
In a match that spun like a football kaleidoscope, Liverpool fans were left clutching their red scarves in shock as Fulham painted the town with three gigantic, mighty goals straight onto the league leaders’ record. With a 26-game unbeaten streak snapping like a league of spaghetti, Liverpool’s garbled moves had onlookers pondering if Arne Slot’s strategy book had really been doodled by a daydreaming chicken. At Craven Cottage, the Reds were pulled apart like a loaf of bread at a seagull’s picnic by a terrier pack of Fulham defenders.
It all began like a well-cooked omelette as Alexis Mac Allister scrambled up a delectable goal, leaving Bernd Leno scrambling in the goalposts like a cartoon villain. But soon, chaos erupted! Andy Robertson conjured a comedy show by passing the ball like it was a flaming hot potato, serving it straight to Alex Iwobi, who said thank you very much and dinged it in for Fulham’s lead. Rodrigo Muniz transformed from merely a mortal into an Avenger when he whirled past Van Dijk and sent an unstoppable rocket past Kelleher all before tea-time.
Despite Liverpool’s attempts to tango back into the match, Fulham played keep-away with the three points like mischievous squirrels with nuts. Even with Luis “Light-Up-These-Wings” Diaz and Conor “Bouncing Boots” Bradley setting up more sparks than a firework factory, the final score stood like a stubborn steed: Fulham 3, Liverpool 2. No penalties, no drama-free endings; just pure Craven Cottage capers!
