Nigerian midfielder Alex Iwobi propelled Fulham FC to a commanding 5-0 win against Nottingham Forest in the Premier League clash on Wednesday, December 6, 2023, MySportDab Reports.

Fulham’s manager, Marco Silva, included Iwobi in the starting XI, a decision that paid off handsomely as the midfielder netted twice, securing the first and fourth goals to ensure a comfortable league victory.

The breakthrough came after thirty minutes when Brazilian star Willian orchestrated a brilliant play, finding Iwobi inside the Forest penalty area.

The former Everton player clinically dispatched a right-footed shot into the bottom left corner, giving Fulham the lead.

Raul Jimenez added the second and third goals for the Cottagers, sealing a perfect evening against Steve Copper’s struggling side.

Iwobi continued to shine, notching his second goal in the 73rd minute, while Tom Cairney completed the rout with the fifth goal just four minutes from time.

The emphatic 5-0 triumph helps Fulham FC put behind the painful memory of a 4-3 loss to Liverpool on Sunday, lifting them to 12th place on the English Premier League table with 18 points from fifteen matches.

Looking ahead, Iwobi and Fulham FC will face London neighbors West Ham United FC on Sunday, December 10, 2023. The Super Eagle’s consecutive home game goalscoring streak adds to the team’s optimism as they aim to maintain their form in the upcoming fixture.

Notable performances from Iwobi’s international teammates, Calvin Bassey and Tosin Adarabioyo, contributed to Fulham’s success, with Bassey excelling at the back and Adarabioyo delivering a flawless performance to the delight of the Craven Cottage crowd. In contrast, Nottingham Forest finds themselves in sixteenth place following this convincing defeat.
