Liverpool Stages a Comeback to Win First Leg of Carabao Cup Semi-Final against Fulham

Liverpool showed resilience as they fought back from a goal down to secure a 2-1 victory over Fulham in the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final at Anfield on Wednesday. Despite a lackluster performance, Jurgen Klopp‘s men managed to turn the game around in the second half.

Fulham took the lead thanks to an error by Virgil van Dijk, allowing Willian to score. The Cottagers looked dangerous at times but squandered a few chances and made poor decisions.

Curtis Jones equalized for Liverpool after his shot took a massive deflection. Just moments later, substitutes Darwin Nunez and Cody Gakpo combined, with Nunez setting up the Dutchman for a close-range finish, completing Liverpool’s comeback.

Marco Silva and his Fulham team will be disappointed by their collapse, considering their earlier positive moments in the match. Liverpool, on the other hand, can breathe a sigh of relief after securing a crucial victory in the first leg.
