Ainsley Maitland-Niles blazed over, January signing Mbaye Diagne clipped the bar and Matheus Pereira swiped at thin air with the goal at his mercy before seeing a follow-up shot cleared off the line by James Tarkowski.
Fulham gave their survival hopes a huge boost as Ademola Lookman’s strike earned his side a 1-0 victory over relegation rivals Sheffield United.

The 23-year-old cut inside Ethan Ampadu before firing a low drive through Ramsdale and into the back of the net. The victory sees Fulham move to within three points of out-of –form Newcastle.
