Fulham 1 - 1 Arsenal Arsenal were denied a late winner as they missed the chance to cut the gap on Premier League leaders Liverpool to four points, settling for a draw against Fulham at Craven Cottage. Author - DJ Bukayo Saka looked to have secured all three points for the Gunners when he nodded in Gabriel Martinelli's cross with just two minutes remaining. However, the goal was ruled out after Martinelli was deemed offside in the build-up. Fulham had taken the lead against the run of play through Raul Jimenez, who scored his sixth goal of the season. The Mexican striker latched onto Kenny Tete's pass down the line and fired past David Raya from a tight angle. Arsenal, hoping to take advantage of Liverpool's postponed Merseyside derby against Everton , struggled to create clear chances in the first half. Their only shot on target came from Saka, as they laboured to break down Fulham's defence. Mikel Arteta's side found an equaliser six minutes into the second ha...

 Fulham 3 - 1 Brighton & Hove Albion Brighton slipped to just their third Premier League defeat of the season as Alex Iwobi's brace, coupled with an unlucky own goal from Matt O'Riley, secured Fulham's win on a wet and blustery evening at Craven Cottage. Author - Craig H from GMCR Football  Despite the dreadful conditions, with heavy rain and strong winds lashing the pitch, there was no excusing Bart Verbruggen's early error that handed Fulham an opening goal. Within just three minutes, the Brighton keeper attempted a short pass to Carlos Baleba inside the box, only for Alex Iwobi to pounce, intercept, and calmly slot the ball into an open net for his fourth league goal of the campaign. Fulham nearly doubled their advantage moments later, but Igor Julio’s crucial intervention thwarted Iwobi as he surged towards goal. Brighton fought back and found an equaliser 11 minutes into the second half. Jan Paul van Hecke delivered a pinpoint lofted pass to Joao Pedro , w...

However, Cunha, a rare bright spot in an otherwise tough season for Gary O’Neil’s side, equalised in the 31st minute with a poacher’s finish. The Brazilian forward then turned provider early in the second half, setting up Joao Gomes to give Wolves the lead. The pair reversed roles later, as Cunha netted his second with a spectacular strike from the edge of the area. Fulham’s misery deepened when Joachim Andersen p...

Author - Jamie P Brentord had taken the lead with a spectacular first-half strike from Vitaly Janelt, who unleashed a powerful shot from 25 yards that seemed fit to settle any game. But with only eight minutes left on the clock, Wilson came on as a substitute and soon worked his magic. He acrobatically flicked the ball over goalkeeper Mark Flekken with the outside of his boot to net his first, then clinched victory in the 97th minute by stooping low to head in a thrilling second. A closer look at what happened Fulham's performance had deserved a positive result, as they came out strong and kept Brentford, known for their fast starts, on the back foot. Cottagers winger Reiss Nelson, making his first Premier League start, forced two saves from Flekken in quick succession, while Emile Smith Rowe also tested the B...

Manchester City 3 - 2 Fulham Mateo Kovacic netted twice as Manchester City battled past a resilient Fulham to secure their first Premier League victory in three matches. City started strongly, but Raul Jimenez’s brilliant backheel set up Andreas Pereira for a close-range finish, putting Fulham ahead against the run of play. Adama Traore had two golden opportunities on either side of Pereira's goal, but he was denied by Ederson in a one-on-one and later blazed a shot over the bar from inside the box. Kovacic made sure to capitalise on Fulham's missed chances. His first came from a half-cleared corner, a shot that took a deflection on its way in. His second, early in the second half, was a much cleaner strike from the edge of the box.

After half-time, Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno produced several crucial saves to deny Ipswich their first top-flight win since April 2002.

Manchester United 1 - 0 Fulham Joshua Zirkzee quickly became an Old Trafford favourite by scoring an 87th-minute winner against Fulham.

His attempt was also stopped by Leno after a cross from Marcus Rashford. Despite these setbacks, United were determined to...

There has been an interesting addition to the squad at Craven Cottage Ryan Sessegnon has rejoined Fulham on a two-year deal after his contract expired at Tottenham. The 24-year-old Fulham academy graduate returns to the club until 2026, with the option for a further year. He originally left for Spurs in a £25m deal in August 2019. The winger's spell at Tottenham was marred by hamstring problems and he was limited to 57 appearances for the club. During his first spell with the Cottagers, Sessegnon scored 25 goals and made 18 assists in 120 senior appearances. He becomes Fulham manager Marco Silva's first signing of the summer as they look to build on last season's 13th place finish.

Let's explore Fulham's 2023/2024 season. This was their second consecutive season in the Premier League since returning to England's top flight. They finished the season in 13th position. In addition, they reached the semi-finals of the EFL Cup but were knocked out in the 4th round of the FA Cup. Some match reports from their season. In August, they earned a hard-fought point against Arsenal at The Emirates. This was achieved thanks to Joao Palhinha. His first-time finish from a corner in the 87th minute earned the away side this draw. Jamie was in the away end and was impressed by elements of his side's performance on that day: "Unfortunately we didn't win, but I think most Fulham fans would say that this is a good result. It is often really difficult to play against Arsenal away from home. We displayed a lot of character after going 2-1 down." One of their best performances of the campaign came against West Ham United in December. Fulham dominated t...

 Chelsea 1 - 0 Fulham Chelsea secured a narrow victory over West London rivals Fulham at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League, with Cole Palmer's first-half penalty proving to be vital. The win was Chelsea's third consecutive victory, moving them to eighth in the table. Palmer's penalty, following a foul on Raheem Sterling by Issa Diop, marked his ninth goal since joining Chelsea in August. Conor Gallagher came close to adding a late second for Chelsea, hitting the far post with a well-struck effort. Despite Chelsea's wastefulness in front of goal earlier in the week, they did enough to secure the three points.  Chelsea won their fourth consecutive home league match for the first time since July 2020. The victory marked a positive start to Chelsea's 2024 league campaign after a challenging 2023, where they won only 12 of their 43 league games.  They are set to face Middlesbrough in the EFL Cup semi-final second leg on 23 January. Another W at the Bridge. 🏡 #...

However, Raul Jimenez, returning from suspension, equalised, and Bobby Decordova-Reid secured the victory for Fulham in the 60th minute.

 Fulham 5 - 0 West Ham United Raul Jimenez continued his impressive resurgence, scoring another goal as Fulham convincingly defeated a lackluster West Ham, marking their second five-goal triumph in just five days at Craven Cottage. The Mexican forward opened the scoring by heading in Joao Palhinha's cross, notching his fourth goal in five league games. Under Marco Silva's management, Fulham dominated the first half, with Willian adding a second from Andreas Pereira's cut-back and Tosin Adarabioyo out-jumping Kurt Zouma to head in the third from a corner.

 Arsenal 2 - 2 Fulham Fulham earned a point at Arsenal thanks to Joao Palhinha. His first-time finish from a corner in the 87th minute earned the away side this draw.  The away side had Calvin Bassey sent off four minutes before that equaliser after he fouled Eddie Nketiah on the counter-attack. Before 3pm, the Emirates stadium was loud and boisterous before the match kicked off. However, that noise became an almost baffled silence.  Andreas Pereira got Fulham off to a flying start, scoring after just 57 seconds. He latched onto a loose ball from Bukayo Saka and fired in a curling shot with the Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale out of position. After Fabio Vieira was caught by Kenny Tete, Saka equalized from the penalty spot for the Gunners. Nketiah then scored Arsenal's second as they came from behind to take the lead , before Fulham had the final say.  As Fulham fans celebrated at the end of the match, Arsenal fans were perhaps slightly concerned that they are...

Southampton 0 - 2 Fulham Let's explore all of the best reaction as Southampton's 11-year stay in the Premier League ended in tame fashion.  Aleksandar Mitrovic, making his return from an eight-game ban for pushing referee Chris Kavanagh, sealed Saints' fate with a stooping header after Carlos Vinicius' opener. You'd have to say it was apt that their relegation should be confirmed at their home ground. They have picked up a poor 10 points out of a possible 57. They will have to improve this form if they want to escape the Championship next season. What did the Southampton boss say? Southampton boss Ruben Selles told BBC Match of the Day: “It is a very tough day – for me, for everybody in the dressing room, for the city, for the fans. It has been a tough season for all of us.  We have been fighting not to be relegated from the very beginning, and the day came today. I just want to say thank you to everybody for the support we felt from the very first day." T...

This team. 😍 #FULLEE pic.twitter.com/KQkv60yOhM — Fulham Football Club (@FulhamFC) April 22, 2023 Chances were few and far between in a quiet first half, with Leeds' Marc Roca forcing goalkeeper Bernd Leno into a good save from a free kick.

 Manchester United 3 - 1 Fulham Fulham had two players and their manager sent off as a crazy minute cost them in their FA Cup match at Old Trafford. Highlights of the match can be found in the video below   The away side had looked on course for only their second last-four appearance since they lost to West Ham in the 1975 final. However, their world collapsed around a handball incident. Just over 20 minutes after Fulham had taken the lead, Jadon Sancho looked like he was about to score an equaliser into an empty net, only for Willian to charge across and clear. The referee had initially given a corner. The sometimes controversial VAR advised the official to check the pitchside monitor, with Willian protesting and manager Silva furious. Two goals from Fernandes (one from the resulting penalty) that were either side of a strike from Marcel Sabitzer gave United the win.  What are the fans saying? We asked a number of fans about they thought about the game. Liam said: "Not...
