In frenzied celebrations following their amazing comeback victory over Brentford, Fulham players repeatedly smacked the head of a supporter who was intruding on the field. In their West London derby, the Cottagers were behind 1-0 with only minutes left when Harry Wilson scored an incredible equalizer in the 92nd minute.

Harry Wilson's two goals in injury time startled Brentford, as Fulham overcame a deficit to win the game at Craven Cottage. In the first half, Vitaly Janelt of Brentford scored a fantastic goal that was good enough to win any game. He had hammered his effort in from 25 yards out.

However, Wilson entered the game with eight minutes left and scored his first goal by acrobatically flicking the ball over goalkeeper Mark Flekken with the outside of his boot. In the 97th minute, he stooped to head in the game-winning goal. Fulham's late attempt left Brentford stunned. However, the Bees were stung once more when Wilson scored a header in the 97th minute to give them a 2-1 triumph.

The supporters of Craven Cottage celebrated joyfully after the Welshman's outstanding brace. Additionally, as he was leaving the stands for the pitch, one fan lost his temper. The fan rushed to Wilson right away and gave him a joyful embrace. Tom Cairney and Rodrigo Muniz also participated in the festivities. Additionally, the gang comically repeatedly slapped the fan on the head in celebration of Wilson's victory. However, the fan kept yelling with delight, as if he loved it.

He was then swiftly led off the field to continue the fun somewhere else. With the victory, Fulham moved up to ninth place in Premier League standings putting them in the running for a spot in European competition two points ahead of Brentford, who are now in 12th place. Now that his team has lost 14 points from winning situations, Frank will be beginning to question what his team has to do to win.
