Despite a goalless first half, Rayan Aiit-Nouri broke the deadlock for the hosts seven minutes into the second half. Thomas Cairney's unfortunate own goal in the 67th minute extended Wolves' lead.

Iwobi managed to reduce the deficit deep into stoppage time, courtesy of an assist from Armando Broja, marking his fifth Premier League goal of the season.

Notably, Iwobi's international teammate, Calvin Bassey, also featured for Fulham in the match.
