Benayoun strike sends Liverpool top
Add comments
Liverpool went to the top of the Barclays Premier League with a goal deep into injury-time by substitute Yossi Benayoun in the most dramatic of encounters following the 1-0 win against Fulham at Craven Cottage.
Rafael Benitez's team missed several good chances and looked set to pay until Benayoun smashed the winner home with his right foot.
It means Liverpool move top the table, two points clear of second-placed Manchester United - who now have two matches in hand.
