Manor Solomon cancelled out a first-half Pablo Sarabia effort as Fulham came from behind to draw 1-1 with Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League on Friday night.

Sarabia sent Wolves ahead in the 23rd minute of the contest, but a brilliant effort from Solomon secured a share of the spoils for Fulham, who were not at their best at Craven Cottage.

The result has left Fulham in sixth spot in the table, just three points behind fourth-placed Tottenham Hotspur, while Wolves still occupy 15th, now four points ahead of the relegation zone.

Marco Silva's side are now six games unbeaten in all competitions, while Wolves have lost just one of their last four in the league, which is a run that has included two wins.

The game's first serious chance did not arrive until the 22nd minute, and it came for Wolves, with Sarabia's effort impressively saved by Bernd Leno after smart work from Nelson Semedo.

The visitors were not to be denied, though, and they made the breakthrough in the 23rd minute, with Sarabia finding the bottom corner after Raul Jimenez had nodded the ball down towards his teammate.

Fulham had the opportunity to level in the 37th minute when Bobby Decordova-Reid's cross found Carlos Vinicius inside the Wolves box, but his header was straight at Jose Sa.

Both teams had chances to add to the scoring in the closing stages of the first period, but Ruben Neves headed over the crossbar for Wolves before Kenny Tete and Andreas Pereira came close for Fulham, with the latter having a free kick tipped over the crossbar by Sa in first-half stoppage time.

Sarabia continued to cause the home side problems and created an opportunity for Jimenez in the 52nd minute with a clever cross, but the Mexico international headed wide of the post.

Fulham were level in the 64th minute of the contest, and it was a brilliant strike from half-time substitute Solomon, who worked space outside the Wolves box before bending one into the far corner of the net with his right foot, with the attacker registering for the third league game in a row.

The visitors almost scored a second in the 67th minute when Craig Dawson met a delivery from Neves, but the centre-back's header deflected off Issa Diop and over the crossbar.

Fulham wanted a penalty in the 75th minute when Joao Palhinha went down inside the box under a challenge from Mario Lemina, but VAR were happy for the play to continue.

The hosts were the team pushing for a winner in the latter stages of the contest, and Vinicius came close to snatching all three points when he met a cross from Tete, but Sa was on hand to make a brilliant save, with the points being shared in the English capital.

Next up for Fulham is a clash with Leeds United in the fifth round of the FA Cup, with their next Premier League game not taking place until March 6 away to Brentford.

Wolves, meanwhile, were knocked out of the FA Cup in the middle of January, but they are in league action next Wednesday, facing a trip to Anfield to take on Liverpool. body check tags ::
