Fulham tightened their grip at the top of the Championship with a comfortable 2-0 victory over Blackburn at Craven Cottage. Blackburn were hoping to gain some revenge for the humiliating 7-0 defeat they suffered at the hands of Marco Silva’s side at Ewood Park in November.

But first-half goals from Neeskens Kebano and Harry Wilson ensured Fulham secured a fifth win in six games. The hosts almost capped the victory in style when full-back Neco Williams struck the bar with a spectacular shot from halfway in the final stages of the game.
