Sunderland floored by Jimenez's late strike for Fulham

  • On Saturday at Craven Cottage, Raul Jimenez slid in to convert a superb low cross from substitute Samuel Chukwueze after 84 minutes, securing Fulham's 1-0 win over Sunderland.
  • Marco Silva's substitutions injected energy into Fulham's play, energising the side and breaking a five-defeat-in-six streak to prompt a late winning push.
  • By half-time Fulham had more than 62 per cent possession and three times the touches in Sunderland's box; Alex Iwobi said, `We created so many chances today. It was almost one of those where you wonder if it will ever go on.`
  • The win ended a poor run of results and delivered three crucial points as Fulham moved up to 14th with 14 points while Sunderland dropped to sixth.
  • Marco Silva's contract expires next summer, raising scrutiny after a frustrating transfer window and slow start, while the January transfer window and injuries to Antonee Robinson and Rodrigo Muniz will test the club's support.
