Ryan Sessegnon matchvinnare när Fulham besegrade Aston Villa med 1-0

Ryan Sessegnon gjorde matchens enda mål när Fulham besegrade Aston Villa med 1-0 på Craven Cottage i Premier League. 25-åringen firade sin nyligen förlängda kontraktsförlängning med sitt mål i den 43:e minuten, vilket stärker Fulhams chanser att nå Europaspel. Aston Villa halkade ner till femte plats, på samma poäng som Liverpool och Manchester United.

Sessegnon högg till i straffområdet i den 43:e minuten efter att Aston Villas målvakt Emiliano Martinez, som gjorde sin 200:e match för klubben, räddat Sasa Lukics nick. Yttermittfältaren, som återvände till Fulham 2024 och tecknade ett nytt avtal som sträcker sig till slutet av nästa säsong, beskrev målet som 'typiskt' enligt hans egna standarder i en intervju med Fulhams hemsida. 'Jag följde upp spelet och förutsåg var bollen skulle studsa', sa han. 'Jag är glad att jag fick en bra träff och höll den lågt.'
