Bobby De Cordova-Reid 7/10
(On for Iwobi 75’) Might feel that Robinson should have set him up with chance at back post not long after coming on but teammate decided to go for goal. Did score not long after when outjumping TsimiShow more
Caoimhin Kelleher 5/10
LIVERPOOL RATINGS: Rare league start due to Alisson Becker’s injury and would have been frustrated that Wilson’s finish went through his legs for first goal. Footwork and body position all wrong for FShow more
Trent Alexander-Arnold 8/10
Grabbed late leveller to silence Man City fans last week, and opened scoring here with superb curling free-kick into top corner after 20 minutes, although ruled as own goal after ball hit Leno’s back Show more
Joel Matip 7/10
Poor ball out from back trying to find Salah started move that led to Fulham levelling four minutes after Liverpool opened scoring in first half. Solid game from Cameroonian. Limped off pitch with 20 Show more
Virgil van Dyck 7/10
Saw shot that would have put Liverpool 2-1 up in opening half well blocked by Fulham. Usual dominant self at the back for Liverpool and given little trouble by lone striker Jimenez. PA
Kostas Tsimikas 5/10
Hit and miss with his crosses from left. Weakly outjumped by De Cordova-Reid for Fulham’s third, which might have proven costly if not for stunning late turnaround. Claimed assist for winner. AFP
Dominic Szoboszlai 7/10
Started game in scintillating fashion with his silky skills drawing the foul that led to free-kick that Alexander-Arnold curled home in style - via back of Leno. Had two shots just after half-time, onShow more
Alex Mac Allister 8/10
Outstanding first-time strike from distance into top corner to put Liverpool back in front, scoring his first goal for club in sensational fashion. AFP
Ryan Gravenberch 6/10
Dutch midfielder had quiet game, neat and tidy but without any big moments. Probably surprise he stayed on pitch until 83rd minute when score was 3-2 to Fulham. EPA
Mohamed Salah 8/10
Had ball in net early on after Leno spill but denied by offside flag. Had volley saved by leg of Leno in ninth minute of first-half injury-time. Teed up chance for Nunez that saw Uruguayan hit woodworShow more
Darwin Nunez 6/10
Could have been booked on a couple of occasions for diving in first half when he offered little attacking threat. Rattled crossbar with thunderous strike after break but should have scored. Fluffed anShow more
Luis Diaz 6/10
Had game's first attempt at goal in third minute when he turned sharply but fired effort too close to keeper who saved comfortably. Hit couple of tame efforts straight at Leno in second half as well aShow more
Cody Gakpo 6/10
SUBS: (On for Szoboszlai 65’) No chance to score as game ended in dramatic fashion. EPA
Joe Gomez 6/10

Wataru Endo N/A
(On for Gravenberch 83’) Nearly scored with deflected effort that flew wide then did score with beautiful first-time strike into top corner. PA
Bernd Leno 7/10
FULHAM RATINGS: Picked up head injury early on in challenge with Diaz after spilling Szoboszlai shot, which left him with heavy bandaging. Could do nothing against two world-class goals in first half Show more
Kenny Tete 7/10
Stabbed home Fulham’s second equaliser in first-half injury-time that was initially ruled out for offside but saw call overturned by VAR. Poor decision to go down looking for foul just after break wheShow more
Calvin Bassey 6/10
Strong performance at back from Nigerian up against some dangerous attacking talent on home team until defence wilted under late Liverpool pressure and a baying Anfield crowd. AFP
Tim Ream 7/10
Denied goal by offside call that would have put Fulham 3-2 up in lengthy first-half stoppage time period – 12 minutes in all – following Leno’s treatment for head injury. Desperate sliding challenge eShow more
Antonee Robinson 7/10
Perfect low cross to pick out Wilson for Fulham’s equaliser in 24th minute. Another surging run not long after ended with shot being deflected wide for corner. Had shot saved by keeper in 78th minute Show more
Harrison Reed 6/10
Scampered around harrying Liverpool as much as possible when in possession, which was for 69 per cent of the match. PA
Joao Palhinha 7/10
Back in team after suspension but was his foul on Szoboszlai that provided Alexander-Arnold with opportunity to fire home free-kick. Industrious performance from Portuguese midfielder who provides teaShow more
Alex Iwobi 7/10
Started on left of midfield, with Wilson on right, and former Everton player played part in move that led to Wilson scoring. Everton man did ok without setting the world alight. AFP
Andreas Pereira 6/10
Brazilian is a beautiful passer of the ball with a lovely touch but not much of a threat on goal at Anfield, bar one weaving run and shot in second half that flew well wide. EPA
Harry Wilson 7/10
Clipped home shot at near post after well-timed run for first league goal of season to make it 1-1 with goal that came from nowhere. Would have been clean through minutes later but first touch let himShow more
Raul Jimenez 5/10
