FULHAM GIFTS HELP POTTER TO FIRST PREM WIN

Fulham had themselves to blame as they fell to 3-2 defeat against West Ham United in a scintillating clash at the London Stadium on Tuesday.

In Graham Potter's first match in charge of a Premier League fixture since his Chelsea dismissal, he received a warm reception from the east London faithful, and an equally hearty display from his side as they were forced to defend for long periods.

Fulham started on the front foot, as West Ham failed to get a touch of the ball in their opponents' half during a tough opening half hour, but a disallowed goal from a Max Kilman header sparked the hosts into life.

They opened the scoring on 31 minutes as slack passing around the Fulham backline resulted in Carlos Soler having a vacated net to aim at, and the midfielder made no mistake, slamming an effort home.

And Potter's side gained a healthy advantage two minutes later, as Tomas Soucek capped off a fine team move to put the Hammers firmly in the driving seat.

The second half, though, erupted into chaos as Alex Iwobi struck first - reducing the arrears as his right-footed cross from the left flank rolled all the way into the net.

And as Marco Silva's side piled on the pressure, they again delivered an absolute gift to the hosts when Bernd Leno was caught in possession, with Lucas Paqueta benefiting to fire into an empty net.

Iwobi astonishingly cut the hosts' lead once again as another cross failed to make contact with a Fulham player but dribbled all the way into the back of the net - though the visitors could not force an equaliser, as their nine-match unbeaten run came to an end on a frustrating evening.
