Iwobi Scores as Fulham Beat Tottenham 2-1 to Boost European Hopes

Alex Iwobi found the net as Fulham strengthened their bid for European football with a 2-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur at the Stadium of Light.

Fulham made a bright start and took the lead in the seventh minute through Harry Wilson. The Welsh winger later turned provider, setting up Iwobi for his side’s second goal just past the half-hour mark.

The Nigerian midfielder has now scored in back-to-back league matches for the Cottagers. The 29-year-old has recorded four goals and three assists in 22 Premier League appearances this season.

His fellow Nigerians, Calvin Bassey and Samuel Chukwueze, also featured in the encounter. Bassey played the entire match, while Chukwueze came off the bench to replace Wilson with 18 minutes remaining.
