Fulham bounced back after cup exit with a brilliant performance to beat Newcastle 3-1. Newcastle could have gone top of the league with a win today after an unbeaten start to the season, but Fulham punished a poor performance. The away side thought they had taken the lead four minutes in, but VAR intervened.

The Cottagers won via goals through Raul Jimenez, Emile Smith Rowe and Reiss Nelson. “A well deserved three points, clearly, in my opinion,” Silva said. “Great work from the lads, and a great reaction from ourselves.

Fulham's Raul Jimenez, Emile Smith Rowe and Reiss Nelson all scored in a 3-1 victory over Newcastle United at Craven Cottage on Saturday, giving Eddie Howe's team their first defeat of the Premier League season.

Harvey Barnes pulled one back for Newcastle after half-time and Fulham held on for large portions of the second half until Reiss Nelson grabbed a third in added time. Jimenez controlled the ball with his chest and rifled the ball past Nick Pope after Adama Traore’s cross in the fifth minute.
