Liverpool successfully halted their three-game losing slump on Saturday with a commanding 2-0 victory over Fulham at Anfield.
The highlight of the match was the sensational performance of 17-year-old Rio Ngumoha, whose 9/10 display has handed manager Arne Slot a significant selection headache ahead of their upcoming clash with Paris Saint-Germain.
The deadlock was broken in the 36th minute when Ngumoha capitalized on a pass from Florian Wirtz, skillfully navigating past Timothy Castagne to curl a stunning strike into the far post.
Just four minutes later, the iconic Mohamed Salah doubled the lead, finishing off a fluid team move that left the Fulham defense reeling.
While the second half was less explosive, the Reds maintained control, ensuring they remain fifth in the Premier League standings—just two points behind Aston Villa.
However, the win was tempered by a potential blow as Curtis Jones was forced off at halftime due to injury.
"Slot's big decision was to play Ngumoha and saying that it paid off would be an understatement," the match report noted, awarding the manager an 8/10 for his tactical bravery.
