The Reds needed Mohamed Salah’s 79th-minute penalty to claim a point in London after they’d fallen behind to a spectacular opener from Bobby De Cordova-Reid in the first period.

The hosts were good value for their lead and created several openings before the interval; however, the champions asserted themselves on the contest after the break and duly drew level from the spot after Georginio Wijnaldum’s free-kick had been handled by Aboubakar Kamara in the wall.

In his post-match press conference, Klopp said: “I am not frustrated anymore about that [Liverpool’s start], but you are right: it took us half an hour to get going and that of course makes the game more difficult.

Jordan Henderson admits Reds 'weren't up to standards' against Fulham FC ⬇

We weren’t up to our standards first 30 minutes and that cost us in the end. Good response from the lads and need to take that into Wednesday. pic.twitter.com/DrsK6g3iJh

"We helped Fulham a lot to create that atmosphere, actually. They obviously played differently to the way they usually play.

"With the ball I didn’t like our game, but there was a lot of loud shouting from outside from all the coaches, so we could solve that a little bit in the first half – like for 15 minutes – but then half-time helped massively and the second half was much better.

“I think in the first half an hour we could have lost the game, in the last 60 minutes we should have won it. In the end we get a point and that’s it.” Liverpoolfc.com
