GIORGI MAMARDASHVILI – 7

Made an important stop from Oscar Bobb after the half-hour mark and then another smart save later on.

JEREMIE FRIMPONG – 6

Looked to help out Mohamed Salah as much as possible with overlapping and underlapping runs and didn’t do much wrong defensively.

IBRAHIMA KONATE – 6

Largely untroubled at the back alongside Van Dijk.

VIRGIL VAN DIJK – 7

Handled the powerful Rodrigo Muniz really well and didn’t put a foot wrong.

ANDY ROBERTSON – 7

Motored up and down all half and was always looking to get his colleagues away with balls in behind the Fulham defence. Managed to have a couple of shots at Leno’s goal too.

CURTIS JONES – 6

Kept things neat and tidy as part of a two-man midfield but perhaps didn’t play enough progressive chances when the opportunities presented themselves.

DOMINIK SZOBOSZLAI – 7

Much more like it from the Hungary captain who was typically energetic at both ends. Always wanted to feed the wide players in possession.

MOHAMED SALAH – 7

Decent effort was saved by Leno early on before another was blocked by a defender after a swivel inside the six-yard box. Saved his best for later in the half though with a trademark finish.

FLORIAN WIRTZ – 6

Started quietly but grew into the game and began to link up neatly with the wingers. Blazed one well over but displayed some nice touches.

RIO NGUMOHA – 8

Had a shout for a penalty waved away after a one-two with Wirtz. Was typically bright throughout with the visitors doubling up on him at every turn. Fulham could do nothing about a pretty sensational opening goal, however.

CODY GAKPO – 6

Decent strike flashed wide after 20 minutes and did well to set up Salah for the second goal.
