Supersub Harry Wilson strikes again as Fulham outclass 10-man Crystal Palace
After going three games unbeaten, this was a return to bleakness for Crystal Palace. Oliver Glasner’s men were outclassed by a livewire Fulham side, Emile Smith Rowe and Harry Wilson providing the goals as Palace finished with 10 men, as Daichi Kamada was sent off.
Fulham were sharper across the board, deserving the lead provided by Smith Rowe at the end of the first half. But a struggle for a second persisted, and nerves would have jangled in those closing stages, even after Kamada’s red in the 76th minute for a sliding tackle into Kenny Tete’s shin. But Wilson contributed once again as a substitute, having scored twice in injury time to beat Brentford at the start of the week. This time his role was to be a closer, not saviour for Marco Silva. Wilson’s arrival in the 82nd minute was followed by jubilation just 39 seconds later.
