Fulham vs West Ham United LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Fulham 1-1 West Ham: There was late drama as Danny Ings rescued a point for the visitors
A late Danny Ings goal snatched an unlikely 1-1 draw for West Ham United at Fulham in their Premier League derby at Craven Cottage.
Fulham went ahead in the 24th minute, with Raul Jimenez getting on the end of a pass from Emile Smith Rowe to find the net from close range and give the home side a fully deserved lead.
West Ham barely threatened in the opening half, and looked like coming away empty handed before substitute Ings struck late in added time to stun the home side.
Fulham are unbeaten in their last three league games while West Ham bounced back from their 3-1 loss to Manchester City before the international break.

It ends honours even at Craven Cottage as Ings' last-gasp equalizer cancels out Jimenez's opener. Fulham were dominant in the first half, and looked largely comfortable for most of the second half, bar a couple of lapses. The equalizer is proof of a loss of concentration as West Ham, who struggled to create meaningful chances in the game, leaves West London with a point after a highly interesting game. The hosts will be kicking themselves to have lost two points, especially in the manner they have done so. The xG at full-time reads Fulham 1.61-0.53 West Ham.
