Last Updated: 12/05/19 5:08pm
Fulham bowed out of the Premier League with a 4-0 defeat to Newcastle at Craven Cottage on the final day of the season.
The hosts were hit by a double blow inside 11 minutes. Jonjo Shelvey volleyed a superb effort home in the ninth minute before Ayoze Perez (11) continued his fine scoring form just over two minutes later.
Fulham were seeing plenty of possession when Fabian Schar had a free header in the 61st minute for Newcastle’s third and, although Scott Parker’s side had the ball in the back of the net soon afterwards, it was incorrectly ruled out for offside.
Salomon Rondon, whose Newcastle future remains uncertain, rounded off the victory in the 89th minute as the Magpies ended the season in 13th place.
