Match report

Fulham saw off Wimbledon 3-0 in the League Cup Round of 64 at Craven Cottage on Wednesday evening. The hosts controlled proceedings from the opening whistle, with the scoreline reflecting a comfortable progression through the competition. By then, the visiting side had already settled into a defensive shape that would not hold for long.

Emile Smith Rowe broke the deadlock in the thirty-seventh minute, finishing a move that had camped in the final third for several minutes. Rodrigo Muniz doubled the advantage before half-time, capitalising on a moment of indecision in the Wimbledon back line. And here's the thing about that period — Fulham had already created their chances, the visitors were getting dragged out of position, and the first half ended with the home side in complete control.

Gonzalo García added the third goal in ninety-third minute, a late flourish that closed out the contest. Oscar Bobb came on just after the interval, followed by a series of changes from both managers as the game settled into its rhythm. Kenny Tete and Zack Nelson each picked up yellow cards, the match staying clean otherwise despite Wimbledon's attempts to disrupt the flow.

The statistics tell the story without embellishment. Fulham held seventy-nine percent possession, registered 150 attacks against 57, and generated 2.89 expected goals from eight shots on target. Wimbledon managed two shots on target and 0.14 expected goals, their goalkeeper making five saves from what little came their way. The hosts completed 673 passes to 117, with 157 passes into the final third compared to 33. Many shots with one goal would have been a different story, but here the chances were taken.

The result moves Fulham through to the next round without drama. Wimbledon's campaign ends in the Round of 64, a stage where they will have nothing to lose going forward. The scoreline and goal difference reflect a straightforward evening at Craven Cottage, where the hosts were simply too strong for their opponents.
