Liverpool v Crystal Palace result: Luis Diaz gets point back after Darwin Nunes' red card
ENFIELD, Liverpool - Liverpool's torrid start to the Premier League continued with a 1-1 draw at Crystal Palace following the summer sacking of Darwin Nunez.
While the Reds preemptively lost to arch-rivals Manchester City on the opening day of the season's mission, they stepped away from the limelight with a crucial draw against newly promoted Fulham.
There was another mistake on the way back to Anfield, with Pep Guardiola's champions, now in charge of four games, playing two.
Of course, it could have been more unlucky for the hosts, who fell behind in the second half to Wilfried Zaha's brilliant finish after a promising first half.
Nunez's sloppy headbutt on Joachim Andersen made their job more difficult, forcing him to take an early shower.
However, Luis Diaz's superb solo goal rescued a point for Jurgen Klopp's side in the final half, a result that onlookers won't particularly appreciate.
