Fulham secured their first win in five matches after Willian scored his second penalty of the night deep into added time. It was awarded when the VAR, Stuart Attwell, told Michael Salisbury to look at the pitchside monitor after João Gomes caught Harry Wilson in the area. Contact seemed slight but it was enough and it was not long before Marco Silva was celebrating a win that moved his side away from the bottom three.
The hosts had made heavy weather of it. As their problems in front of goal faded, so did their ability to defend. Wolves showed character to respond to an early strike from Alex Iwobi and a penalty from Willian in the second half. There were goals from Matheus Cunha and the outstanding Hwang Hee-chan but Gary O’Neil’s side finished empty-handed.
