Fulham started the match on a high note, taking an early lead when Iwobi collected a pass from Kenny Tete at the edge of the box and unleashed a powerful shot into the far corner. 

However, their advantage was short-lived as Wolves quickly equalised. Mario Lemina delivered a precise pass over Fulham's defence, allowing Matheus Cunha to score with a deft finish.
