Overview
- Fulham, which beat AFC Wimbledon 3-0 on Thursday at Craven Cottage, progressed to the Carabao Cup third round and will travel to West Ham next.
- Emile Smith Rowe opened the scoring to give Fulham an early lead and the team dominated possession and chances throughout the match.
- Rodrigo Muniz ended a year-long goal drought with a header from Kenny Tete’s cross to make it 2-0 by half-time.
- Gonzalo Garcia added a late third after a solo run to register his second goal in two games and strengthen the competition for starting striker roles.
- AFC Wimbledon, who reached this round after a stoppage-time equaliser and a penalty shootout win over Newport, remain in poor League One form and failed to test Fulham’s goalkeeper.
