Liverpool and Fulham Play Out Goalless Draw at Anfield
Fulham claimed their first Premier League point under Alvaro Arbeloa after Liverpool failed to score despite fielding three £100 million-plus attackers.
On Saturday, Fulham frustrated Liverpool to claim their first point of the season with a goalless draw at Anfield. The Reds failed to capitalize despite fielding a trio of £100million-plus attacking signings.
Fulham dominated large portions of the match, displaying energy and creativity that troubled Liverpool throughout. Josh King proved particularly dangerous, narrowly missing the target after Sander Berge seized possession early.
Liverpool struggled to lift the tempo, with Victor Munoz seeing his header clawed away by Bernd Leno. Alexis Mac Allister later teed up Dominik Szoboszlai, but the Hungarian's powerful strike went straight at the keeper.
Reds boss Andoni Iraola, who made three changes, faces questions regarding his squad's performance. Former Liverpool defender Alvaro Arbeloa could reflect on a job well done after Fulham's positive display.
Despite finishing strongly with Mac Allister, Cody Gakpo, Rio Ngumoha, and Jeremie Frimpong on the field, Liverpool could not break the deadlock. The visitors held on for a hard-earned draw, positioning them toward their first Premier League win.
