Muniz earns Fulham a late draw after Murphy’s long-range strike
Rodrigo Muniz came off the bench to score a late equaliser as Fulham drew 1-1 with Newcastle, extending their unbeaten run to four matches. Jacob Murphy had put Newcastle ahead with a powerful 25-yard strike, but Fulham responded after a mistake by César Palacios, who then helped create the equaliser.
Newcastle improved after losing four of their previous five games in all competitions and led from the 80th minute, but could not secure a second consecutive league away win. An earlier goal by Dan Burn was ruled out for a holding offence by William Osula, while Bernd Leno made a late save from Lewis Hall; the report described the draw as fair.
In short
- Muniz rescued a point for Fulham with a late equaliser.
- Murphy had given Newcastle an 80th-minute lead.
- Fulham’s unbeaten run now stands at four matches.
