WHAT HAPPENED? The Cottagers were in Summer Series action against the Bees at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. They claimed a 3-2 victory over Premier League rivals on American soil, with Wales international winger Wilson giving them the lead inside three minutes. His curling effort from the edge of the box was a thing of beauty, with a unique view of that goal captured by the camera being worn by match official Peter Bankes.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Bobby Decordova-Reid and Carlos Vinicius were also on target for Fulham, with Yoane Wissa and Kristoffer Ajer netting two goals in response for Brentford.
