BREAKING NEWS: Iwobi scores as Fulham beat Liverpool, Chelsea draw at Brentford

 Super Eagles forward Alex Iwobi was on target for Fulham and also bagged an assist as his team defeated Liverpool 3-2 in the Premier League on Sunday.

Defeat ended Liverpool’s 26-matcg unbeaten run.

The Arne Slot men took the lead through Alexis Mac Allister’s stunning 25-yard strike, but Fulham hit back with three goals in 13 minutes before halftime.

Ryan Sessegnon equalized with a sharp finish after Andreas Pereira’s cross deflected to him.

Moments later, Iwobi punished a poor Andy Robertson pass, scoring on his second attempt after a deflection off the Scot.

The third came from a Fulham corner — after Iwobi’s mishit, Rodrigo Muniz kept the play alive, beat his marker with a slick touch, and slotted under Caoimhin Kelleher.

Luis Diaz gave Liverpool hope in the 72nd minute, converting Conor Bradley’s pass, but the equalizer never came. Harvey Elliott nearly rescued a point, but his curling shot struck the bar.

Liverpool stay 11 points clear at the top with seven games remaining and need a maximum of 11 more points to secure a record-equalling 20th league title.

Meanwhile, victory boosts Fulham’s chances of European qualification as they move up to eighth, five points behind Chelsea in fourth.

Meanwhile, Chelsea were held to a goalless draw by Brentford. Elsewhere, Tottenham Hotspur secured a 3-1 victory over Southampton, who have now been relegated with eight games to go.
