Harry Wilson scored a stunning winning goal as Fulham made a thrilling 3-2 comeback against Brentford. After falling behind, Fulham showed great fight to turn the game around, with Wilson’s late strike sealing all three points in dramatic fashion.
Fulham Win West London Derby with Comeback Victory
Fulham defeated Brentford 3-2 in an exciting Premier League match full of twists and turns. The game was played at Brentford’s home stadium and had everything — goals, drama, and a stunning strike from Harry Wilson.
Wilson Haunts Brentford Again
Harry Wilson once again became the hero for Fulham. The Welsh winger had scored two late goals in the first match against Brentford earlier this season. This time, he came off the bench and scored an incredible goal from nearly 30 yards out. His goal changed the game and helped Fulham come from behind to win.
It was a big moment not just for Wilson but for the whole Fulham team, as they moved to 54 points in the league — their best-ever tally in a Premier League season. With this win, they stayed in the hunt for a European spot, sitting just one point behind Brentford.
Fulham Take the Early Lead
The match started well for Fulham. In the 16th minute, Raul Jimenez scored with a powerful header after Adama Traore delivered a perfect cross. Jimenez outjumped Nathan Collins and directed the ball past Brentford goalkeeper Mark Flekken. It was Jimenez’s 12th goal of the season.
However, the joy didn’t last long. Brentford fought back and equalised after winning the ball in midfield. Bryan Mbeumo played a one-two pass with Yoane Wissa, then ran into the box and scored with a low shot into the corner of the net.
Brentford Take the Lead — Then Lose It Quickly
Brentford got a big chance to take the lead when Kevin Schade was fouled inside the box. The referee awarded a penalty, and Mbeumo stepped up to take it. But Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno made a great save to deny Mbeumo his 20th goal of the season.
Despite that miss, Brentford didn’t give up. Just a few minutes later, Wissa — who had just avoided a second yellow card — scored after a throw-in led to chaos in the box. Christian Norgaard’s header slipped through Leno’s hands, and Wissa pushed the ball into the net to make it 2-1.
Then came the turning point.
Fulham’s Quick Comeback Seals the Win
Marco Silva made some changes, bringing Harry Wilson onto the pitch. Within minutes, Wilson changed the game. He received the ball far from the goal and curled in a brilliant long-range shot that stunned everyone — including the Brentford keeper. It was 2-2.
Fulham didn’t stop there. Just two minutes later, they scored again. This time it was after a fast team move that ended with a smart finish, putting Fulham 3-2 ahead.
Brentford tried to come back, but Fulham’s defence stood strong. They held on to the lead until the final whistle.
Fulham Make History in the Premier League
With this win, Fulham completed a double over their West London rivals for the first time in Premier League history. They had beaten Brentford 2-1 earlier in the season and now secured another memorable win.
This was not just any victory — it marked Fulham’s highest ever points total in a Premier League season. Coach Marco Silva praised his team’s spirit and said they were still fighting for a European spot.
