Fulham boss Slavisa Jokanovic: 'The Championship is complicated'

Fulham boss Slavisa Jokanovic has praised his side after they recovered from a deficit to register a 2-1 victory over Sunderland on Friday night.

Needing a win to guarantee that the automatic promotion race in the Championship went down to the final day, Fulham trailed the already-relegated Black Cats before goals from Lucas Piazon and Aleksandar Mitrovic secured a win for the Cottagers.

Fulham now hold a two-point lead over Cardiff City - who face Hull City on Saturday - but Jokanovic insists that he has no plans to follow the game in the North-East.

The 49-year-old told BBC Radio 5 live: "You can see how complicated this competition is. We wanted to control the situation but didn't attack enough and take risks. In the second half, we started to move the ball better and there was a big difference with our passing.

"We can talk about our character and our confidence. I am not going to watch the Cardiff game. I have different plans."

Fulham have now gone 23 matches unbeaten at the second tier of English football.
