Fulham produced one of the all-time great turnarounds on Monday night.

They trailed Brentford 1-0 when the fourth official indicated there would be a minimum of six minutes of stoppage time.

Another minute and a half elapsed before substitute Harry Wilson equalised after 91 minutes and 30 seconds. And Fulham weren't done there! With the clock at 96 minutes and 47 seconds, Wilson scored AGAIN, netting the Cottagers' latest ever winning goal in a Premier League match.

More comebacks than ever this season

Fulham's late show continues a trend of comebacks becoming increasingly common in the Premier League.

This season nearly HALF of the teams who have conceded first in matches (46.9 per cent) have come back to win or draw. Twenty-one teams have conceded first and come back to win, while 24 have conceded first and come back to draw.

That figure of 46.9 per cent is the highest we've ever seen in a Premier League season by some distance.

Top three seasons for teams fighting back
Season Teams getting result after conc. first
2024/25 46.9%
2012/13 36.2%
2010/11 36.1%
