It seems Liverpool is still facing issues with their defense.

He said: “I have to say that the way we conceded the goal was a bit childish. It was clearly their (Fulham’s) best moment in the first half, and we didn’t know how to control it. We had the chance to do that by playing a few long balls, trying to play fast, and I don’t think that was a smart thing to do, and we conceded.”

“That’s football, and that’s the Premier League. But I’m really pleased with the way we reacted and controlled the game in the second half,” Jota added.

The victory against Fulham helped Liverpool end their disappointing streak since the beginning of April. They are now on 74 points, level with table-toppers Arsenal.
