In what could yet be a tight relegation battle, Wolves were left to rue two minutes of dozing off at the start of each half to hand Fulham victory. Ryan Sessegnon scored in the opening minute of the match and Rodrigo Muniz fell just short of replicating the feat after the break to boost their European hopes, while the hosts blew the chance to move eight points clear of the drop zone.
Vítor Pereira’s side were worthy of more but set their own downfall by not paying sufficient attention after kick-offs and being wasteful in front of goal, apart from João Gomes’s consolation. Wolves had 18 shots but only five hit the target, while Fulham were efficient when opportunities arose.
