Millwall 0 Fulham 3:

Sessegnon on target as Jokanovic's side go second



Fulham leapfrogged over Cardiff City in the Championship table after recording a 3-0 triumph over Millwall.



Fulham moved up to second place in the Championship table courtesy of an impressive 3-0 away win over Millwall on Friday.



Slavisa Jokanovic's side extended their unbeaten league run to 22 games as they leapfrogged over Cardiff City to boost their hopes of automatic promotion to the Premier League.

However, they had to come through an early onslaught from Millwall, who remain in the play-off places despite seeing a 17-match unbeaten run in the Championship come to an end.

Fulham goalkeeper Marcus Bettinelli tipped Jake Cooper's firm header onto the bar before George Saville saw a goal chalked off due to a foul.


Yet the hosts were caught cold in the opening minute of the second half, Ryan Sessegnon pouncing on a loose ball after keeper Jordan Archer found Aleksandar Mitrovic's low drive too hot to handle.

Kevin McDonald doubled the lead with a long-range strike in the 56th minute, with the impressive Mitrovic rounding out the scoring in the closing stages, the on-loan Newcastle United forward providing the finish to cap substitute Tomas Kalas' break.

The result sees Fulham not only do the league double over Millwall but also go two points clear of nearest rivals Cardiff, albeit the Welsh club do have two games in hand.

Some Cardiff fans I know have commented on social media saying that Fulham’s victory last night changes nothing as we still need to win 3 games to guarantee promotion. Whilst I commend their positive way of thinking, I tend not to agree, as we would have needed less points if they’d lost or drawn. Either way, looking at the table at this stage of the season with 2 games in hand, it’s a great position to be in.

Hopefully, Fulham will draw one of their remaining fixtures and 7 points from our last 4 games will be enough. :thumbup:

We are still in prime position and it is all in our hands, which is what any team at this stage of the season would wish for. Would Fulham like to be in our position instead of theirs, too bloody right they would. Tonight is huge.

In any contest, would you prefer to rely on yourself or others to seal your fate. I'd back myself any day.

Today is a must win really.

Otherwise we face having to win at both Derby and Hull - which would be tough.
