Mohamed Salah rescues point for Liverpool after Aleksandar Mitrovic brace, Darwin Nunez debut goal
Mohamed Salah struck on the opening weekend for the sixth straight season and Darwin Nunez netted on his Premier League bow as Liverpool rescued a 2-2 draw against an Aleksandar Mitrovic-inspired Fulham at Craven Cottage. Mitrovic, who plundered a record 43 goals in the Championship last term, set the tone when he toe-poked an early effort wide of target before making his mark just past the half hour when he rose above Trent Alexander-Arnold to head home Kenny Tete’s magnificent cross. Ad/> Liverpool looked subdued for large spells but Luis Diaz almost levelled before the break when he sizzled a shot against the crossbar from the left side of the area.

Klopp questions team's attitude after 'really bad game'
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was in no hurry to show affection to his players after they were held to a disappointing 2-2 draw by newcomers Fulham in their opening fixture of the Premier League season on Saturday. Liverpool had to come from behind twice to secure the draw and though they could have stolen it in stoppage time when Jordan Henderson hit the crossbar, there was little in the way of celebration from the visitors when the final whistle went. "You can't always hug the boys - we do that usually when they deserve it," a frustrated Klopp told broadcaster BT Sport. "You start the game in a specific way which was the opposite to how we wanted to start - really, completely opposite. "We got a point for a really bad game by my side, and now it's a question of how did it happen. I said it to my colleagues, the attitude was not right in the beginning, then we wanted to fight back but you don't find it easy anymore."
