Rodrigo Muniz continued his impressive scoring streak, netting his fifth Premier League goal in as many matches, contributing to Fulham's commanding 3-0 victory over Brighton at Craven Cottage.

The win marked Fulham's first consecutive league victories since December, following a 2-1 win against Manchester United at Old Trafford. Fulham's performance was dominant from the start, with Harry Wilson opening the scoring with a spectacular long-range effort, setting the tone for the match.

The match began with Fulham asserting their dominance early on. A notable moment came when Harrison Reed's dynamic run earned Carlos Baleba a yellow card.

Reed then tested Brighton's goalkeeper, Jason Steele, with a powerful shot from inside the box.

Fulham's pressure paid off in the 21st minute when Muniz outmaneuvered Lewis Dunk to assist Wilson's stunning goal. Despite Brighton's attempts to equalize, including missed opportunities by Adam Lallana and Julio Enciso, Fulham maintained their lead.

Fulham's relentless attack continued into the second half, with Wilson and Muniz showcasing their electric partnership. Although Wilson missed an initial one-on-one opportunity, he soon found Muniz, who demonstrated his strength and skill before being dispossessed by Dunk in a crucial defensive move.

Brighton struggled to find their rhythm, with Evan Ferguson missing a significant chance that epitomized their lackluster performance.

Sealing the Victory

As the match progressed, Fulham began to focus on defense, allowing Brighton more possession but effectively neutralizing their attacks. Pervis Estupinan attempted to invigorate Brighton's offense with a dangerous cross, but their efforts remained fruitless.
