Harvey Elliott should get a big slice of credit for Trent Alexander-Arnold’s sublime free-kick during Liverpool’s win over Fulham after confusing the home side’s defensive wall, according to boss Jurgen Klopp.
Alexander-Arnold scored a cracking strike to open the scoring for Liverpool, before Timothy Castagne equalised shortly before half-time. The Reds ended a four-game wait for an open-play goal as Ryan Gravenberch and Diogo Jota secured the win after the break.
And Klopp says Elliott put doubt into the minds of Fulham’s defenders when he tried to poke a set-piece under the wall minutes before Alexander-Arnold’s goal.
