Fulham earned a first Premier League victory of the season with a dominant performance against Hull City on Saturday afternoon.

Spurred on by a vocal home crowd at the Cottage, the Whites started strongly and took a deserved lead into the break, through Alex Iwobi‘s fine finish.

Gonzalo García thought he had made it two in the second half, but his header came back off the woodwork.

A late red card for Ryan Sessegnon was the only negative from the fixture, with the Academy graduate dismissed for a mistimed challenge at the death.

Álvaro Arbeloa made two changes to the side that were beaten by Ipswich Town a week earlier. Both came in the full-back areas, with Kenny Tete and Sessegnon making way for Timothy Castagne and Antonee Robinson.

A confident start from Fulham saw Josh King combine well with Iwobi down the left, which culminated in the latter curling a shot towards goal, with a vital block diverting it onto the roof of the net.

For all our control of proceedings, chances weren’t overly forthcoming in the first quarter of the game, with Calvin Bassey directing the ball behind at a corner, and Oscar Bobb having a free-kick saved, as close as we got.
