Mighty Mo the opening-day hero does it again! Salah rescues Liverpool in thrilling draw at Fulham thanks to a lucky break... after Alexandar Mitrovic bullied Virgil and Trent to score brilliant double

Liverpool were forced to come from behind twice as they drew at Craven Cottage on the opening Saturday of the 2022-23 Premier League season.

Aleksandar Mitrovic scored twice, once with a header at the back post after climbing above Trent Alexander-Arnold, and once from the spot but it was not enough to give Marco Silva an unlikely first win of the season.

Liverpool at times struggled to cope with Fulham's intensity but will be delighted at the resolute nature of their performance as they showed last season's capabilities of coming from behind to gain points has not been extinguished over the short summer break.
