Fulham 3-1 Newcastle PLAYER RATINGS: Who had a 'costly howler'? Which superstar was 'vastly diminished'? And what made Harvey Barnes the visitors' best player?

Fulham secured a 3-1 win over Newcastle thanks to goals from Raul Jimenez, Emile Smith Rowe and Reiss Nelson at Craven Cottage.

Marco Silva's side took the lead within the first five minutes after Jimenez produced a superb strike on the turn to find the back of the net, before Smith Rowe scored 17 minutes later.

The Magpies did get back in the game on 46 minutes through Harvey Barnes but it wasn't enough to prevent their first defeat of the season.

In the final moments of the match, substitute Nelson wrapped up the win with a strike in added time and complete a very enjoyable Saturday afternoon for the hosts in west London.
