In truth it would have been a travesty if Brentford, ahead through a brutal strike from Vitaly Janelt midway through the second half, had won this west London derby. Thomas Frank's side had barely played any football. They sat deep and took every opportunity to indulge in a spot of gamesmanship.
It was frustrating to watch and Fulham could have crumbled. Instead, they kept pushing. Wilson's equaliser sparked a wild finish. Brentford almost won it, only to miss a glorious chance for 2-1. Fulham went up the other end and Antonee Robinson crossed for Wilson, whose brilliant header looped beyond Mark Flekken to earn Marco Silva's team their first win in four matches and sent Fulham into the top half.
