The visitors started brightly at Craven Cottage and deservedly took the lead in the 19th minute. After initially thinking Alli had scored with a smart flick-on at the near post, it was later confirmed Adarabioyo had turned the ball into his own net. Maja then thought he had equalised in the second half, only for his left-footed strike to be ruled out by VAR for a Lemina handball in the build-up.
Mourinho's team move within touching distance of the Champions League spots, three points behind fourth-placed West Ham. The visitors next host Crystal Palace before a Europa League tie with Dinamo Zagreb. Fulham, who fail to put pressure on Newcastle United and remain three points away from safety, next face the thankless task of a trip to Anfield to face Liverpool.
