Fulham 2-0 Tottenham Hotspur: Cottagers beat Spurs to boost European hopes
16 March 2025Fulham’s Marco Silva, in his 200th game as a Premier League manager, would not have been happy with how his side performed for 75 minutes.
They were lacking in creativity and decisiveness, but one passage of play changed the feeling of the game and lifted the mood, with Fulham winning the ball high up the field and eventually working it to Muniz who finished in fine fashion.
Fulham looked more confident after the opener and stood firm as Spurs hunted for an equaliser.
Sessegnon showed desire to close out the win against his former side, latching on to a long ball and holding off Davies before finding the right corner.
The Cottagers had last recorded successive home Premier League wins against Tottenham during their days under Chris Coleman in 2004-05 and 2005-06.
Fulham have never finished higher than seventh in the Premier League, achieving that position in 2008-09, but they are firmly in contention to better that this season.
With nine games remaining, European football in 2025-26 is also a tantalising prospect.
