Sheyi Ojo inspires Wolverhampton Wanderers win over Fulham

Ojo inspires Wolves win over Fulham

Sheyi Ojo scored one and set up another as he came off the bench to help guide Wolverhampton Wanderers to a 3-0 victory over 10-man Fulham this evening.

Kenny Jackett's side had early chances to take the lead at Craven Cottage, with Benik Afobe forcing a save out of Andy Lonergan before James Henry fired another effort over the bar.

Moments later, Kevin McDonald's cross found Afobe, who sent his header goalwards only to be thwarted once more by Lonergan.

Tom Crainey was then denied by Emiliano Martinez at the other end, but the midfielder was sent off 10 minutes before the interval for a poor challenge on Adam Le Fondre.

Fulham then fell behind 11 minutes after the break as Ojo worked himself into space on the left before his cross was met with a glancing header by Le Fondre.

Moments later Ojo got on the scoresheet himself after his strike from the left of the box was dropped by Londergan and the ball rolled through the keeper's legs to double Wolves' lead.

Wolves then wrapped up victory 12 minutes from time as Henry's curling free kick left Lonergan rooted to spot as it flew into the top corner.
