Fulham won at Turf Moor for the first time in almost 75 years, beating Burnley 3-2 in an entertaining Premier League clash, reports Ollie Walsh for Fulham FC.

Goals from Emile Smith Rowe and Calvin Bassey either side of a Clarets equaliser saw us take a 2-1 lead into half-time, and in-form Harry Wilson added to the score in the second-half.

The home side reduced the deficit late on, but we held out to secure a deserved three points in Lancashire.

We absorbed some early pressure from the hosts, but got ourselves ahead inside ten minutes. Wilson whipped in a clever corner that caught Burnley out, with Smith Rowe alone in the middle to tuck home with a first-time finish.

There was almost an immediate response from Scott Parker’s side, but Bernd Leno was alert to make the block when the ball fell to Ugochukwu in the box.

But Ugochukwu couldn’t be denied on the 20-minute mark when he got the wrong side of the Fulham defence, with the forward’s left-foot finish trickling past Leno into the corner of the net.

Just ten minutes later, Fulham restored their lead. Wilson was again the provider, plucking an Antonee Robinson ball down and looping a cross in for the leaping Bassey to nod home.

The high-octane first-half continued, with Leno again standing strong to save from Armando Broja, before Wilson was set free on the counter. The Wales international’s shot was deflected, allowing goalkeeper Martin Dúbravka to divert it away from goal.

Leno protected the one-goal advantage moments before the break, getting down so well to get a strong hand to Ugochukwu’s fiercely-struck half volley.

Marco Silva’s men started the second-half with a couple of dangerous attacks. Robinson’s delivery from the left was just behind Smith Rowe, and Samuel Chukwueze could have done better to find Alex Iwobi with Burnley stretched at the back.

When the Clarets capitalized on a loose ball, Leno remained in fine form – sliding in to stop Jacob Bruun Larsen from equalizing.

Bassey almost completed an unlikely brace, winning the ball in the box before running the length of the pitch, skinning his man but eventually firing wayward after cutting in on his left.

We did find our third goal before the hour mark, as Smith Rowe drove forward and found Chukwueze, whose ball across the box dropped to Wilson to expertly curl home with his trusty left peg.

There could have been yet another goal involvement for our number eight, as he nipped in to steal the ball off a Burnley defender, but Robinson got too much power on the strike from Wilson’s lay-off.

The home side pulled a goal back with five minutes left, as substitute Oliver Sonne arrived at the back post and swept home, but there was to be no grandstand finish as the Whites successfully saw out six added minutes to seal the victory.
