"Chelsea's first game since the appointment of Liam Rosenior as manager ended in defeat as a late Harry Wilson goal gave Fulham a 2-1 victory in the West London derby. Rosenior watched from the stands at Craven Cottage after being confirmed as Enzo Maresca's successor, and will take the positives from the resilience they displayed after going a man down and a goal down."
"Marc Cucurella's dismissal in the 22nd minute drastically altered whatever plan interim boss Calum McFarlane had in mind, and when Raul Jimenez headed Fulham in front 10 minutes into the second half they were given a mountain to climb. It looked as if they had rescued something from the situation after Liam Delap levelled with his first Premier League goal for the Blues."

Chelsea went a man down after Marc Cucurella was sent off in the 22nd minute for denying a goalscoring opportunity. Fulham took the lead when Raul Jimenez headed home ten minutes into the second half. Liam Delap equalised with his first Premier League goal, but Harry Wilson scored nine minutes from time to win the match. Enzo Fernandez's corner deliveries caused early chances, Andrey Santos struck the crossbar, and several players received bookings. Jorrel Hato replaced Santos after the red card.
