Fulham 1-2 Liverpool

James Milner's late penalty moved Liverpool back to the top of the Premier League with a nervy 2-1 win at Fulham on Super Sunday.

Title challengers Manchester City were in FA Cup action on Saturday and now have a game in hand, but Liverpool took advantage as Sadio Mane finished off (26) for his 20th of the campaign after a fine move involving Roberto Firmino.
After Alisson clumsily failed to fully reach a weak Virgil van Dijk header back, former Liverpool man Ryan Babel nipped in and turned the ball into an empty net (74) to stun the visitors, but they were back in front shortly after as Milner scored from 12 yards (80) following Sergio Rico's tug on Mane.

The result means Liverpool are two points clear at the top of the Premier League, but second-place Manchester City have played one game less. Fulham have lost their last seven and remain 19th.

Man of the match - Sadio Mane

Luckily for Liverpool, while Mohamed Salah struggles to make the impact he had last season, Mane is on fire. He's scored seven in his last five, and looks the sharpest of Klopp's front three going into the final two months of the season.


Everton 2-0 Chelsea

Everton ended a two-month wait for a home league win as a spirited second-half display secured a 2-0 victory that dented Chelsea’s top-four hopes at Goodison Park on Renault Super Sunday.

The Toffees had to withstand a first-half Chelsea barrage before goals from Richarlison and Gylfi Sigurdsson secured a first win against a top-six side in more than two years for Marco Silva's team.

Chelsea struck the post and had no fewer than 10 attempts on goal in a one-sided first half but were left stunned as another abject away performance saw a seven-game unbeaten run in all competitions come to an end on Merseyside.

The result means Maurizio Sarri's side miss the chance to move level with fourth-place Arsenal, while Everton climb above Bournemouth into 11th, halting a miserable run of just one win in their last eight home league matches.
