Nigerian forward Ademola Lookman provided an assist as Fulham fell 2-1 to Leeds United in Friday’s Premier League game.
Lookman started his 25th league game for the cottagers in a formed three-man attack featuring compatriot Josh Maja and Portugal’s Ivan Cavaleiro but gave a good account of himself.
Marcelo Biesla’s men had capitalised on Fulham’s stuttering start to the game as they opened scoring in the 29th minute through Patrick Bamford.
Moments before the half-time break, Lookman set up Joachim Andersen with a fine pass to reduce Fulham’s deficit.
However, Raphinha scored the match-winning goal in the 58th minute after receiving an assist from Bamford.
Lookman featured in the entire duration along with fellow Nigerian Tosin Adarabioyo while Ola Aina was replaced in the 72nd minute by Kenny Tete.
Maja only played for 46 minutes before he was taken off for Aleksandar Mitrovic while Cameroon’s Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa was on parade for the entirety of the game.
Lookman has scored four goals and provided three assists for Fulham, amid other dazzling displays since teaming up with the Cottagers last summer on a season-long loan from Bundesliga club RB Leipzig.
With the defeat, the Craven Cottage outfit remain in the relegation zone after gathering 26 points from 30 games.
