📈 Jiménez fires again as Fulham blitz Arsenal early

High-flying Fulham could be set to keep on rolling after the Cottagers have taken an early 1-0 lead against visiting Arsenal at Craven Cottage.


Though Mikel Arteta's Gunners were been dominant in possession early doors, it was Marco Silva's men who went direct to open the scoring in the 11th minute thanks to Raúl Jiménez.

To take nothing away from his pin-point strike, it was only their second touch in Arsenal's half of the pitch, truly making something out of nothing.

As for Jiménez, the Mexican international continues to go from strength to strength along the Thames, registering his seventh G/A this season already, equalling his entire contribution from last term.

Additionally, Jiménez's early goal was once again the match-opener.

No one knows how to set the Cottagers up and running better than him.
