Fulham Stages Dramatic Comeback to Eliminate Middlesbrough

In a thrilling FA Cup match, Fulham managed to turn the tables on Middlesbrough, coming from behind to win 3-1. The visitors took the lead in the first half through Hayden Hackney, but Fulham's second-half resurgence, led by goals from Harry Wilson, Emile Smith Rowe, and Kevin, sealed their place in the next round. The win marked a sixth consecutive FA Cup defeat for Middlesbrough and extended their winless streak in London to 23 matches. Fulham's boss Marco Silva watched from the stands due to a touchline ban and would have been disappointed with his team's lackluster first-half performance. However, the introduction of Wilson, Raul Jimenez, and Tom Cairney after the break changed the game's dynamics. Wilson's equalizer was a highlight, as he curled a left-footed strike into the bottom corner. Despite Middlesbrough's efforts to regain the lead, Fulham took control, with Smith Rowe scoring the decisive goal before Kevin added a third in injury time. The victory marked Fulham's sixth successive third-round triumph and sets them up for the next stage of the competition.
