Iwobi stunner consigns Spurs to second straight loss
Tottenham remains stuck in Premier League relegation trouble as it was beaten 2-1 by Fulham to consign Igor Tudor to a second straight defeat.
Alex Iwobi's stunner was decisive at Craven Cottage, where the home side took the lead with its first opportunity of the contest.
A deflected cross from Oscar Bobb fell to Harry Wilson in the seventh minute, and the Welshman emphatically volleyed home from close range.
Spurs complained of a foul in the build-up, believing that Raul Jimenez had pushed Radu Dragusin, but the goal was confirmed by VAR.
Tottenham struggled to gain a foothold and were under the cosh for large parts of the first half, with Kenny Tete striking an effort wide of the post, but Fulham's pressure told again when Iwobi brilliantly fired into the bottom-left corner from distance.
Fulham continued to dominate after the break and went close to a third, as Emile Smith Rowe spurned two fine opportunities, while Jimenez had a goalbound effort blocked by Spurs captain Mickey van de Ven.
Yet Spurs improved after a raft of substitutions, and one of those changes, Richarlison, dragged them back into it with a fine header from Archie Gray's delicate left-wing cross.
Pape Matar Sarr struck the side-netting and Joao Palhinha had a shot blocked in the dying stages, but Fulham held on, meaning Spurs remain just four points above the drop zone.
