Substitute Manor Solomon’s stunning second-half strike earned Fulham a 1-1 draw at home to Wolves in a tight affair at Craven Cottage in the Premier League on Friday.

Wolves were much the better side in the first half and deservedly went in front after 23 minutes through Pablo Sarabia’s fine finish, the Spain international’s first goal in English football.

The hosts rarely threatened without injured top scorer Aleksandar Mitrovic but Solomon stepped up with a superb leveller in the 64th minute, curling the ball into the net from distance and scoring for the third successive league match.

Wolves threw striker Diego Costa on late in the game as they searched for a winner, but they had to settle for a draw that pulled them four points clear of the relegation zone, having played one more game than West Ham United in 18th.

Fulham stay sixth, having missed the chance to move level on points with Newcastle United in fifth.

That was better from Fulham. This time De Cordova-Reid's cross finds Vinicius in between the two centre backs but his header goes straight at Sa. Would Mitrovic have buried that? We'll never know!

De Cordova-Reid finds the ball in the box but his cross to Vinicius is nowhere near him and the ball is cleared.

That was ambitious! Cunha spots Leno off his line from the halfway line but his shot goes well wide. There are some ironic cheers from the Fulham faithful but they've been quiet so far.

Robinson shapes up to cross the ball into the box but he slips and Wolves collect. That just about sums up Fulham's half so far!

Fulham are not playing with much confidence here. Wolves are well in control and look dominant.
