In a dramatic twist at Craven Cottage, Harry Wilson — once a Liverpool academy product — delivered a moment to remember by netting against his old club as Fulham took the lead early in their Premier League clash with Liverpool.Wilson, the Wales international who left Liverpool to join Fulham in 2021 after years of loan spells, showed his composure in front of goal and punished his former side with a slick finish inside the opening 20 minutes. His strike broke the deadlock and sent the Craven Cottage crowd into raptures, especially given his history with the Reds.The goal came after a well-worked move that saw Wilson find space behind Liverpool’s defence — and despite some offside controversy earlier in the move, the goal was ultimately given. It was a special moment for the midfielder, who emerged through Liverpool’s youth ranks before building his career elsewhere.Although Liverpool pushed to respond, they found it hard to break down Fulham’s organised setup in the early stages, with Wilson’s finish proving the pivotal moment of the opening period.Wilson’s connection to Liverpool adds extra spice to today’s fixture, and his early strike reminded fans just how far he’s come since his days at Anfield.
