Fulham hold on to beat Hull City despite late Ryan Sessegnon red card

Fulham secured a narrow home victory over Hull City in the seventh round of the English Premier League, with a first-half goal deciding the match.

The decisive moment came in the 33rd minute, when Alex Iwobi and Sander Berge were involved in the move that led to Fulham taking the lead. Hull City were unable to respond after falling behind, leaving the hosts in control of the scoreline.

Hull City continued to pose a threat after the interval and remained capable of rescuing a result. Fulham’s defence, however, held firm and prevented the visitors from restoring parity.

The contest became particularly tense in the closing stages. In the 94th minute, Fulham were reduced to 10 players when Ryan Sessegnon was shown a red card.

Despite finishing the match a man down, Fulham protected their advantage through stoppage time to claim the win.
