Crystal Palace took an early lead in their Premier League clash away to Fulham, but the hosts have since leveled thing up.

The opener came from Eddie Nketiah gave Crystal Palace the lead with a deft first-touch and strong finish into the bottom-right corner, set up by a firm, incisive pass from Adam Wharton.

It was the 26-year-old's fourth career goal vs Fulham, but only his first start of the season for Palace.

The former Arsenal forward seems to have taken his opportunity, following an injury to Ismaïla Sarr.

However, Harry Wilson equalised with a stunning outside-of-the-foot finish. The Wales international has been on a fine run of form, becoming Fulham's top goalscorer this season.
