EPL: Liverpool fight back twice with 10 men to draw 2-all against Fulham

The returning Diogo Jota scored a late 2-all equaliser as English Premier League leaders Liverpool twice fought back with 10 men to deny Fulham a victory.

Jota, sidelined with injury since October, slotted in an 86th-minute equaliser.

Fulham’s Andreas Pereira had scored in the 11th minute and 6 minutes later Liverpool’s Andy Robertson was dismissed for denying Harry Wilson a goalscoring opportunity.

Cody Gakpo's header shortly after half-time levelled the score.

Fulham's failure to capitalise on their numerical advantage fuelled Liverpool's belief and Mohamed Salah twice came close to delivering a win but could not find the target before Rodrigo Muniz delivered a sucker punch.

In other matches today, Arsenal and Everton finished the match in a nil-all draw, Newcastle United beat Leicester City 4-0, Ipswich beat Wolves 2-1 while Nottingham Forest beat Aston Villa 2-1.

Liverpool is leading the points table with 36 points, Chelsea is second with 31 points, Arsenal is third with 30 points while Nottingham Forest is now in 4th place with 28 points.
