Fulham returned to winning ways as the Cottagers secured an important victory against relegation-threatening Leciester City.
The Cottagers headed into the clash off the back of a 3-2 loss at the hands of West Ham during the week.
However, they were able to get back on their feet with a 2-0 win and keep a clean sheet against Leciester.
Liverpool legend Michael Owen has reacted to Alex Iwobi’s two goals for Fulham against West Ham.
West Ham United defeated Alex Iwobi’s Fulham side to return to winning ways in the Premier League.

Ruud van Nistelrooy has made one change to his Leicester side, who were beaten 2-0 by Crystal Palace on Wednesday night.
Fulham boss Marco Silva has also made just one change to his starting XI as they look to bounce back from defeat at West Ham.
The first half failed to produce any goal, with both teams not creating many chances to break the deadlock.
However, just at the start of the second half, Super Eagles star Alex Iwobi was substituted out for Adama Traore.
Shortly after Iwobi’s substitution, Emile Smith Rowe gave the visitors the lead from a header in the box.
Fulham doubled their lead later on in the game, with Iwobi’s replacement, Traore, getting the second goal to clinch the win for the visitors.
Haha why did they do that is like they want to rest him for next match .
Thank God for lwobi for saving Fulham
