Fulham vs Manchester City: Live Score, Line-Ups & Where to Watch Today’s Premier League Showdown
• Hot Trendy News
Manchester City secured a vital 2-0 victory over Fulham at Craven Cottage on Sunday, sealing qualification for next season’s UEFA Champions League and keeping Pep Guardiola’s side in contention for a top-three Premier League finish. Ilkay Gündogan opened the scoring with an acrobatic overhead kick in the 21st minute, and Erling Haaland doubled the advantage from the penalty spot midway through the second half, sending Bernd Leno the wrong way in front of 27,671 spectators in west London.
Gündogan’s moment of brilliance settled early nerves for the visitors, who arrived knowing three points would mathematically clinch a Champions League berth. Fulham responded with spells of possession but struggled to convert territory into clear chances; the Cottagers registered just three shots on target compared with City’s five.
The decisive passage came on 72 minutes when Antonee Robinson’s mistimed challenge on Phil Foden prompted referee Andy Madley to point to the spot. Haaland strode up and buried his 23rd league goal of the campaign, putting the result beyond doubt and silencing an otherwise vocal home crowd.
City’s control was underpinned by a 53 % share of possession and six corner kicks to Fulham’s one, reflecting their grip on proceedings. Despite late pressure—including a stoppage-time effort from Raúl Jiménez that sailed over the bar—Marco Silva’s men could not breach Ederson’s goal, condemning them to a first home defeat in four matches.
The win moves Manchester City to 68 points, leapfrogging Newcastle on goal difference and guaranteeing a top-four finish with one round remaining. Fulham remain 10th on 54 points but can still record the club’s highest Premier League tally since 2012 with a positive result on the final day.
