Nottingham Forest lost at home on Sunday afternoon, beaten by a Fulham side that controlled large portions of a busy, eventful match. The final scoreline, though not provided in full detail, tells only part of the story.
Fulham were sharper from the start. Neco Williams put them ahead at 18 minutes, and Sander Berge added a second before the half-hour mark had passed. Forest showed moments of intent but struggled to build anything coherent against a well-organised visiting midfield.
The second half brought a flurry of changes and further goals. Dan Ndoye, already introduced at the interval alongside Omari Hutchinson for Forest, scored shortly after coming on and again in the 65th minute to pull the home side level for a spell. Elliot Anderson had also struck just before the break, suggesting Forest had found some purpose. But Fulham responded with composure. Samuel Chukwueze scored at 62 minutes, and Tom Cairney extended the lead in the 78th minute after Ryan Yates had been dismissed for Forest four minutes earlier. James McAtee added a late goal in the 88th minute to confirm the margin.
Ryan Sessegnon came on deep into stoppage time but the game was long settled. Fulham made their substitutions count, with Rodrigo Muniz and Antonee Robinson both entering the action after the hour. Forest, by contrast, were chasing the game from early on and never quite recovered the composure to threaten it seriously.
