Result: Fulham 1-3 Everton

Late goals from Louis Saha and Jack Rodwell sealed victory for Everton away at Fulham this afternoon.

Bryan Ruiz looked to have rescued a point for the Whites when he cancelled out Royston Drenthe's third minute opener.

It should have been even better for Fulham, but Bobby Zamora failed to score in an open goal after he rounded Tim Howard with one minute of normal time remaining.

The visiting Toffees punished Zamora's miss when they counter-attacked in stoppage time, resulting in French striker Saha squeezing an effort between goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer and the post.

The points were sealed in the stoppage time by Rodwell, who capitalised on some slack defending to score from 18 yards out.
