But a valiant performance by a ten men Liverpool meant they could salvage at least one point from the game.

That means Liverpool still lead the Premier League table with a game to spare as well and will continue to do so even if Chelsea win on Sunday afternoon.

Nonetheless, the two draws in a row in the league will be frustrating for many supporters and everyone involved with the club, including John Henry's wife.

Linda Pizzuti Henry's wife issues emotional response to Liverpool draw

Linda Pizzuti is a cult figure for Liverpool fans for her outspoken messages on social media at times.

She is the wife of John Henry, who is the principal owner of Liverpool.

Henry has often faced criticism for what some fans perceive as lack of investment into Liverpool with the Reds spending considerably less on transfers than their counterparts.

However, you cannot knock the man and his wife for their passion and commitment to the club. Pizzuti's latest statement on social media is very indicative of just how fiercely they feel about Liverpool.

Pizzuti took to Instagram to praise the support of the fans while also sending a not so subtle criticism towards the referee.

Liverpool will feel aggrieved by the refereeing decisions in the game with Fulham's Issa Diop avoiding a red card on a very high tackle on Robertson during the beginning of the game.

The on-field referee awarded Diop a yellow card and the incident was reviewed by VAR but they did not intervene to suggest a review of the decision.

Later on, Andreas Pereira also avoided further caution for a challenge on Ryan Gravenberch before going on to score the opening goal of the game.

These decisions marked the game and meant Liverpool were up against the odds. In this context, Slot's side ability to avoid a defeat can be considered as a huge success.
