Fulham 0-1 LIVERPOOL [Benayoun 90+'], EPL Gameweek 31

I am never going to watch another Liverpool game sitting with opposition supporters. What a dramatic finish. I had to clench my fist in my mouth to make sure I didn't celebrate the last-gasp winner. I wish I could've celebrated. It was such an incredible finish to a game we dominated and hit the posts not once, not twice, not thrice but four times! What a way to sign-off an incredible season at Craven Cottage. Because of my upcoming exams, I probably will not be going to see another match till next season. I'd never seen Liverpool win before and to get a winner seconds before what looked like yet another disappointing draw, was simply magical. And it was scored at our end. Nobody complained, Fulham deserved to lose. It briefly put us top of the table and if it wasn't for the injury time winner at Old Trafford today, we'd've stayed top till next weekend. Oh well, at least we're still in the hunt and putting pressure on the bastards down the M62. And it's back to the European Cup. We host Chelsea at Anfield on Wednesday evening. Should be an absolute corker. YNWA
