Iwobi Scores as Fulham Beats Farense 2-1 in Pre-Season
On Saturday, in their final pre-season fixture during a training camp in Portugal, Fulham defeated Portuguese side Farense 2-1. Midfielder Alex Iwobi scored the equalizing goal for Fulham after Emile Smith Rowe was fouled in the penalty area, successfully converting the penalty kick.
This goal shifted the momentum in Fulham's favor, allowing them to push for a winner. In the 89th minute, Brazilian striker Rodrigo Muniz secured the victory with a goal after Josh King was also fouled inside the box.
Iwobi's performance was noted as composed, contributing significantly to the team's efforts. Last season, Iwobi had a productive campaign, scoring four goals and providing three assists in 29 Premier League appearances, establishing himself as one of Fulham's most consistent players.
With the new 2026/27 season approaching, Iwobi aims to build on his strong pre-season form.
