Jimenez Saves Fulham with Late Penalty Against Ipswich

Fulham extended their unbeaten run to eight matches after a thrilling 2-2 draw against Ipswich Town at Craven Cottage. The match was marked by three penalties, with Raul Jimenez stepping up to score twice from the spot for Fulham. Ipswich initially took the lead with a goal from Sammie Szmodics in the first half, but Jimenez equalized in the 69th minute. Just two minutes later, Ipswich regained the lead through a penalty converted by Liam Delap. However, Jimenez struck again in the dying moments of the match, netting his second penalty in the 91st minute to secure a point for Fulham.

This result keeps Fulham in ninth place in the Premier League table, just two points behind Aston Villa. Ipswich Town, on the other hand, remains in the relegation zone, sitting 18th, trailing 17th-placed Wolverhampton Wanderers on goal difference. The match also set a record for the shortest gap between two penalty goals in a single half of a Premier League match since the 2006/07 season.

In another notable encounter, Manchester United managed to earn a 2-2 draw against Liverpool at Anfield. Liverpool initially took the lead with a goal from Lisandro Martínez early in the second half, but Manchester United fought back with a late equalizer from Amad in the 80th minute, ending their three-game losing streak. Despite a missed opportunity by Harry Maguire in stoppage time that could have secured a win, the draw was a positive sign for Manchester United under new manager Ruben Amorim.

Liverpool remains at the top of the Premier League standings with 23 points from nine games, while Arsenal follows closely with 19 points from 11 games. Fulham's position in ninth with 29 points from 19 games contrasts sharply with Ipswich Town's struggles in 18th place with just 15 points from the same number of matches. Manchester United sits in 14th place with 22 points from 19 games.
