"Harry Wilson was Fulham's hero as his last-gasp free-kick saw Fulham claim a dramatic 2-1 win over Brighton. The Wales international snatched all three points for the hosts in the 92nd minute at Craven Cottage, where Yasin Ayari's stunning first-half attempt was cancelled out by the returning Samuel Chukwueze. Raul Jimenez had the first decent opportunity of the contest, neatly turning away from his marker before drawing a save from Bart Verbruggen at his near post in the 24th minute."
"However, Fulham dragged themselves level in the 72nd minute as substitute Chukwueze, just back from the Africa Cup of Nations, controlled Joachim Andersen's long ball before sweeping past Verbruggen. Danny Welbeck thought he had restored Brighton's advantage just a minute later, but the striker saw his neat finish ruled out for offside following a VAR review. Nevertheless, there was still time for a dramatic twist in the second minute of stoppage time, when Verbruggen could only help Wilson's fierce free-kick into the roof of the net, as the hosts climbed into the top half of the Premier League table."
