Liverpool midfielder James Milner pleaded guilty to Fulham's goal against his team, although the mistake was made by Virgil van Dyke and goaltender Alison Baker.
Liverpool narrowly escaped Fulham's trap after winning a brace against a goal on the 31st day of the English Premier League. The goal of the landowners was achieved by Ryan Babel after a fatal foul of Van Dyck and Allison. (See details)
"It's me who put Van Dick in a bad position (…) .I put him under pressure, which was not ideal," said Milner in comments, including the website of his club.
"But luckily we won and we did what we had to do."
Liverpool was introduced for the first time in the 26th minute by Sadio Mani, before Ryan Babel was the victim of a fatal foul by van Dyck and Allison to score a draw in the 74th minute.
However, James Milner refused to leave Liverpool with just one point to make a penalty in the 81st minute.
"Before the payment, I thought about what had happened, I felt that the goal was probably my fault.
"It's been years that I'm training to pay penalties, and in the game you just have to go back to what you practiced and stay quiet and know what you're doing."
Milner's kick saved Liverpool from a draw, leading the Reds to 76 points at the top of the league temporarily, two points behind Manchester City.
