Evan Ferguson's passed finish gave the hosts a lead they deserved midway through the first half, and Fulham barely saw the ball in the first 45 minutes.
But Joao Palhinha smashed in a leveller for Fulham, who stay 14th in the table after picking up a point on the south coast.
Dom Smith was on hand to rate the Fulham performances from the Amex…
Bernd Leno 7
Saved expertly from Carlos Baleba's long shot, and also denied Simon Adingra with his feet as the Ivorian closed in.
Timothy Castagne 6
Torn to shreds down the win by Kaoru Mitoma in one jinking run from the Japanese. Otherwise assured.
Calvin Bassey 7
Made one impressing marauding overlapping run with the ball and finally a Premier League start — his third — went well for him.
Tim Ream 6
Gave away one silly just outside the area when Pascal Gross span him, but otherwise tidy.
Antonee Robinson 4
Some misplaced passes in the first half left his manager shouting at the turf, and he was caught on his heels a few times too. Booked. Somewhat redeemed himself with a late goal-saving block.
Harrison Reed 6
His bouncing header from a corner had Jason Steele scrambling. Put himself about.
Joao Palhinha 8
Flew into every tackle like it was his last and unleashed a second-half pile-driver to earn Fulham a point.
Alex Iwobi 7
After he settled into game, was able to keep Fulham in possession with close control and technical ability.
Bobby De Cordova-Reid 6
Hooked a glorious volleyed chance over the bar when he should have controlled before firing on goal.
Willian 7
Never stopped running, and even helped out with some defensive work.
Raul Jimenez 5
Just doesn't look the same player since before his head injury. Worse at holding up the ball than usual, and still yet to score for Fulham, and hasn't scored a Premier League goal in 32 games.
Subs
Andreas Pereira (Reed, 58') 6
Dropped due to poor form but played better here.
Rodrigo Muniz (Jimenez, 58') 6
Nearly scored an incredible backheel flick.
Harry Wilson (De Cordova-Reid, 58') 7
Assisted Fulham's only goal.
Tom Cairney (Willian, 86') N/A
