Just before the board goes up for injury time, Jan Paul van Hecke slammed an effort from range a few yards wide of goal.

Offside

Simon Adingra looks as if he's won the game as he takes down Webster's pass and slots past Leno, but the flag goes up for offside!
86'

ANOTHER DOUBLE CHANGE

Simon Adingra and Mats Wieffer replace Kaoru Mitoma and Carlos Baleba.
84'

GREAT CHANCE FOR WELBECK

Joao Pedro crosses from the left, Welbeck is in the middle to meet it, but he gets the connection wrong and sends it well wide of goal.

Substitution

DOUBLE ALBION CHANGE. Yankuba Minteh and Georginio are replaced by Danny Welbeck and Solly March.
74'

BRILLIANT DEFENDING FROM MITOMA

Iwobi nutmegs Estupinan on the Fulham right and appears to have a free run down the flank, but Mitoma is tracking back. Initially Iwobi looks too strong for him but Kaoru slides in and wins it, before it deflects back off Iwobi and behind for a goal-kick. Really good work from Mitoma.

Substitution

Diego Gomez replaces Yasin Ayari for the final 20 or so minutes.
69'

Yellow Card

Robinson goes into the book for a lunging challenge on Georginio. The Frenchman is in pain but able to continue.
56'
RoundArrow

Offside

Albion have it in the back of the net as Yankuba Minteh's cross is tapped in by Kaoru Mitoma, but the flag goes up for offside. Minteh was the one who had just run offside.
50'

LOVELY MOVE, JOAO FIRES JUST WIDE

Joao Pedro plays a one-two with Georginio that sees the Frenchman flick the ball over the Fulham defence exquisitely. Joao hits it first time looking to find the top right corner, but sends it wide.

Goal!

van Hecke
A FIRST PREMIER LEAGUE GOAL FOR JAN PAUL VAN HECKE!!! It's a brilliant header from the Dutchman, as he nods in from Yasin Ayari's free-kick! He absolutely loved that.

Goal

Raul Jimenez brings down Alex Iwobi's brilliant cross and rifles in.
28'

JOAO PEDRO SMASHES STRAIGHT AT LENO

It's slightly fortunate for Yankuba Minteh as he appears to have lost the ball in midfield but ends up coming away with it. He plays it into Joao Pedro who spins and fires at goal, but it's straight into the arms of Leno.
24'

SMITH ROWE STRIKES NARROWLY WIDE

The ball falls for Smith Rowe on the edge of the Albion area and the former Arsenal man looks to send it low into the bottom right corner, but it takes an important touch off the calf of Jan Paul van Hecke and behind for a corner. This game is struggling a little to spark into life.
20'

LENO HAS TO BE ALERT

Minteh runs at Bassey and looks to cross in low from the right, his ball takes a nick off the Fulham defender and is heading towards the bottom corner, but the Cottagers' keeper is down quickly to tip it wide.
13'

AYARI'S EFFORT BLOCKED WIDE

Georginio wriggles away from two players before playing a cute pass out to the left for Mitoma. The Japan international passes to Ayari just inside the box and he gets a shot away which deflects wide for a corner.
10'

IMPORTANT HAND FROM VERBRUGGEN

Pereira's corner in front of the north west corner drifts towards Bart Verbruggen's top right corner, but the Dutchman gets a big paw on it to put it behind for another corner.
