Half-time: Fulham 2 Charlton 0

By

Scott Parker scored against his former club and Hugo Rodallega added a second as Fulham raced into a two-goal lead inside 12 minutes at Craven Cottage.

Parker, who spent 14 years at Charlton, volleyed in off the crossbar after exchanging passes with Ross McCormack.

And after the Whites maintained their bullish start, Rodallega tapped home from close range after keeper Stephen Henderson had parried McCormack’s shot from inside the box.

Parker and Rodallega both returned to the side as two of four changes, with defenders Tim Hoogland and Sean Kavanagh also coming in.

Hoogland almost conceded an own goal when he miscued a clearance high into the air, but keeper Marcus Bettinelli tipped it over the bar.

Fulham (4-3-3): Bettinelli; Hoogland, Bodurov, Burn, Stafylidis; Parker; Christensen, Kavanagh; Ruiz; Rodallega, McCormack
Subs not used: Kiraly, Hutchinson, Zverotić, Roberts, Williams, Woodrow, Smith
