Fulham too strong for Crawley Town in pre-season friendly

Fulham made it back-to-back pre-season wins with a 3-1 triumph over Crawley Town this afternoon.

Crawley were close to an opener when they hit the bar early on, but it was Fulham who went in front after 14 minutes when Tom Cairney pounced after Matt Smith's header had been saved.

The Cottagers were only ahead for a couple of minutes as Izale McLeod equalised from the spot after he was brought down by Jazz Richards.

Richards made amends by smashing high into the net just before half time to restore the visitors' advantage.

In the second half, Fulham looked fairly comfortable and scored a late goal through Liam Donnelly to guarantee victory.
