Liverpool Ends Slump at Fulham's Expense

Ending a run of three consecutive defeats across all competitions and without a Premier League win since late February, Liverpool returned to winning ways this Saturday, overcoming Marco Silva's Fulham with a 2-0 victory.

Playing at Anfield, the Reds established their lead in the first half. First, the 17-year-old prodigy Rio Ngumoha opened the scoring in the 36th minute, before Mohamed Salah doubled the advantage shortly after in the 40th minute.

Despite being two goals down, the London side, managed by the Portuguese coach, didn't give up and threatened Arne Slot's defense. However, they couldn't find a way to reduce the deficit and reignite the contest for points.

With this triumph, the Merseyside team solidified their fifth-place position, closing in on Aston Villa and putting additional pressure on sixth-placed Chelsea, who face Manchester City this Sunday (4:30 PM GMT). Meanwhile, Fulham, sitting in 11th, suffered their first league defeat since early March.
