Steve Cooper’s side had to work hard for their win but Brennan Johnson’s 15th goal of the season and a well-taken strike from James Garner, either side of half-time, put them on course for a precious three points. And with 23 minutes on the clock Mitrovic had the first clear-cut chance after Fulham turned defence into attack, with a hint of controversy too. Even though Middlesbrough had plenty of the ball in the early exchanges, Fulham’s quality in possession and ability to use the width of the pitch gave Chris Wilder’s men plenty to think about from the off.
Aleksandar Mitrovic's 38th goal of the season moved the Cottagers 11 points clear of second-placed Bournemouth.
“Fulham are the best team by a distance, smashed everyone all season home and away. “We did second half, the goal against was a poor one. I have told them we have to celebrate this win and smile because we achieved a massive result here with the heart and organisation needed. We will fight for it and fight to be champion. He is playing well and we will score goals. This is a massive step towards what we want.
Aleksandar Mitrovic scored the winner in Fulham's 1-0 win at Middlesbrough while Bournemouth lost at West Brom.
Nottingham Forest climbed back into the play-off places as they beat Coventry 2-0 at the City Ground. Brennan Johnson’s 14th league goal of the season gave Forest a half-time lead and James Garner added a second in the 61st minute. Aleksandar Mitrovic’s 38th league goal of the season clinched Fulham a 1-0 win at Middlesbrough and lifted them 11 points clear at the top of the Championship. Boro, chasing a third successive league win, saw their play-off hopes dealt a blow as they dropped out of the top six, two points behind Sheffield United albeit with a game in hand.

I have told them we have to celebrate this win and smile because we achieved a massive result here with the heart and organisation needed. "We were on the back foot then, whereas up to that point we were on the front foot and I felt we would go on to win at that point rather than lose, I don't know how. The feeling, the environment inside the dressing room, is really good but we know we want to celebrate more in the weeks ahead. It was a poor challenge from Matt Crooks, got booked, and our prep was about where Mitrovic gets into the middle of the goal and we have not blocked that run for him to score. It seemed we lacked a bit of belief to go toe-to-toe with the best team in the division. We were well in the game from the off, especially in the second half.

They would have a big scare early in the second half, but thankfully Bobby Decordova-Reid proved not to be a member of the wide awake club. The hosts had two huge chances and passed them by. But aside from that and Fry’s error to let in Mitrovic, Boro had few alarms with Joe Lumley protected well. Harrison Reed, whose searing break and early cross just required a touch in front of goal from a supporting Fulham player, hinted at plenty. Without one of the top operators in his position in the division this season in Isaiah Jones, who failed to start a league game for the first time since the end of October due to illness, Wilder’s side went out via the ‘front door’ as he likes to put it. A stirring ovation for his team at the final whistle was something.

Deal for talented teenager was made during January transfer window but ran out of time.
He has made 31 appearances for Marco Silva’s side in all competitions this season, scoring eight goals and providing seven assists, and could well face Fulham next season given they appear poised for an immediate return to the Premier League as Championship champions. Carvalho, who can also operate as an attacking midfielder, was born in Portugal and has represented the country at under-21 level, scoring on his second appearance against Greece at the end of March in a European Under-21 Championship qualifier. Liverpool have finalised a deal for Fabio Carvalho that will see the exciting Portuguese winger join from Fulham for €5 million plus add-ons in the summer, bringing to an end a chase the club had failed to complete on deadline day of the most recent transfer window.
Liverpool are set to complete the signing of Fulham's teenage star Fabio Carvalho this summer. The Reds tried to arrange a deal for the 19-year-old in ...
On that occasion, though, the clubs could not reach an agreement, and a tribunal process was required. Carvalho has contributed an impressive eight goals to their campaign. Because of Carvalho’s age, the Reds will be forced to pay a fee for his signing, with The Guardian reporting that the deal will be be worth around £4m. Another £2m in add-ons could potentially be owed, and Fulham will be due 20 percent of any future sale.

Even stay at Fulham where he’s going to get a chance to play in the Premier League next season. He’s not going to start in that team, there are too many better players. “If I was him I would go to a Premier League club where he’s going to play.
What a crazy night that was. As ever, Cam puts his spin on things and the wheels of automatic promotion just keep on turning. All aboard!
For a defender, a student of his trade at the age of 34, that is as close to a 10/10 you can possibly get. The American stifled daunting phases, he rallied his comrades constantly to secure the hardiest victory of the campaign and with a popped sniffer, literally taking one for the team, Fulham’s defensive line was practically impenetrable. Obviously, the Dutchman is out of regular matchday involvement and against Middlesbrough, his evening was always going to be demanding but it was the simple side of the game that he mismanaged, rather than complex tactical requests. Against Middlesbrough, virtually all of these convenient attributes were prominent in his outing and a solitary flash of finesse made all the difference in the heat of the battle. He and Aleksandar Mitrovic have forged a relationship that promises bulging nets and as Harry’s feathered set-piece sailed into a vacant corridor, Mitro emphatically butted his 38th goal of the season in the 73rd minute of play. We have witnessed 7-0 decimations, we have ground out toilsome single-goal triumphs at treacherous destinations on the road but this result, in the driving rain at a rocking Riverside, is by far the most satisfying of the campaign.

“Big W, we dug in and got the job done. +3 we move. The Fulham midfielder also claimed that it was a big win for the team, as they chase promotion back to the Premier League.
The Reds came close to capturing promising attacking midfielder Carvalho on January transfer deadline day before running out of time to complete the deal.

The Premier League side have an option to buy the 29-year-old after this campaign. Whether it will be Fulham or West Ham remains to be seen. Łukasz Fabiański has been preferred ahead of him.

Fulham will also retain a sell-on clause of around 20 per cent. Liverpool failed with a deadline day attempt to sign Carvalho in January. A deal looked set to be agreed that would have allowed him to remain at Craven Cottage until the end of the season, but the Premier League giants could not get it over the line in time. Liverpool have reportedly tied up a deal to sign Fabio Carvalho in the summer.
Liverpool have agreed a deal with Fulham for the transfer of Fabio Carvalho according to a report.
Fabrizio Romano has now confirmed however that the medical is complete and the deal is done which will cost Liverpool £5million plus £2.7 million in add ons. Liverpool have agreed a deal with Fulham for the transfer of Fabio Carvalho according to a report. Report: Liverpool Agree Deal For Transfer Of Fabio Carvalho From Fulham
Liverpool have concluded a deal for Fabio Carvalho that will see the exciting winger join from Fulham for €5m (£4.17m) plus add-ons in the summer.
He will now do so on 1 July – when his contract with Fulham expires – with the transfer expected to be officially announced next month. The add-on payments will be in the region of £2.7m with Liverpool also agreeing to a £20% sell-on fee. Jürgen Klopp never lost interest in the 19-year-old, however, and with his contract ending in the summer, was determined to sign him before he became a free transfer and thus hugely attractive to rival bidders.
A deal for Fabio Carvalho to join Liverpool from Championship side Fulham is reportedly close to being completed.
He’d had his medical in Liverpool but then the deal collapsed because of the timing. However, this time, things are expected to go through smoothly. "The deal is close to be done, close to be completed."
Jurgen Klopp is reportedly on board with sanctioning a familiar deal for a second time in a move that could determine the fate of Joe Gomez.
The days of James Milner deputising in the position now seem to be over. What’s more, it would allow him to feature regularly ahead of a potential Wales appearance at the Qatar World Cup. He is gaining vital experience in London – something that would be in far shorter supply behind Alexander-Arnold at Anfield. That means his potential return to Anfield next year could close out one of Gomez’s avenues to match action. Gomez, 24, has struggled to achieve minutes in his recognised position of centre-back this season. The sanctioning of that deal would also mean Gomez would need to be retained to cover at right-back.

Neco Williams has impressed on loan at Fulham but keeping the Liverpool loanee in West London could be a tall order.
I am pleased with the way he has adapted at our football club, but talking about his future is too early for us.” His intensity and the way he supported our offensive game has been fantastic and he is a young lad who always gives his best. Neco is fully focused in his role at this football club, we are focused on taking the best from him.
Fulham boss Marco Silva says it is 'too early' to start talking about the possibility of signing Liverpool's Neco Williams this summer.

Live match updates as Middlesbrough take on Fulham in the Championship at the Riverside.
He gets a cross in and Mitrovic is back post with the header but it's tame to Lumley's right and an easy save. He slides it across the face of the goal but Reid can only touch it the wrong side of the post. He nods into the path of Reid who then nods onto Wilson advancing into the box. Few 'waheys' from teh crowd as Wilder provides a nice little backheel flick as the ball goes towards him out of play. Crosses from the left and Crooks arrives to volley at goal but Ream gets a block that sends it over. Great run from tav from just inside the half. Great sliding tackle by Bola. Ball goes forward and is eventually inside to Sporar who hits one from outside the area, low to the keeper's near post. That's so close from Reid sliding in at the backpost but stabbing it wide. Applause at FT from home fans in appreciation of the effort. Mitrovic ghosts in unmarked and heads well into the far corner. Resulting free-kick from the Crooks challenge is swung in and Wilder will be fuming with that. Good effort from Boro against the runaway leaders.

HERE are the Middlesbrough FC player ratings from Wednesday evening's Championship game against Fulham at the Riverside Stadium.
Got sharper and went close on the restart. Sporar: Could not get much change out of Ream and Adarabioyo early on. Didn't let the team down. Peltier: Sworn in on the right with Jones absent. But he and Fry would not have been happy with the goal, which spoilt things. McNair: Dominant performance at the back.
Fulham are reportedly showing interest in FC Koln defender Timo Hubers. The 25-year-old centre-back has a year remaining on his current contract at the ...
Mawson and Hector haven’t featured in many games this season, but if Ream is to leave the club, it would be a big loss, meaning a quality player would have to come in to replace the American. But what would Fulham’s starting XI look like if they signed the German centre-back? Hubers has made just 15 appearances in the Bundesliga this season and looks out of favour with FC Koln in 8th place of the Bundesliga table.

Then in the 73rd minute the prolific Mitrovic headed Fulham in front with a fine glancing header from Harry Wilson’s free-kick after Crooks had conceded a free-kick. And with 23 minutes on the clock Mitrovic had the first clear-cut chance after Fulham turned defence into attack, with a hint of controversy too. Even though Middlesbrough had plenty of the ball in the early exchanges, Fulham’s quality in possession and ability to use the width of the pitch gave Chris Wilder’s men plenty to think about from the off.
Boro drop out of the Championship play-offs after defeat to Fulham at the Riverside Stadium.
From a free-kick, Wilson whipped a ball with purpose into the box and Mitrovic glanced a header over Lumley and into the top right hand corner for his 38th of the season. Wilder was left with his head in his hands in the technical area. They dropped out of the play-offs on a night where their end of season run in took another turn. Super sub Josh Coburn was thrown into the mix and Boro weren’t going to give this game up without a fight. His venomous shot zipped off the surface from 25 yards onto to see Rodak react quickly to palm the ball behind diving down to his right. Anferee Dijksteel came to Boro’s rescue moments later when a Fulham carved open Boro as Mitrovic and Bobby Decordova-Reid freed up Fabio Carvalho in the box with two neat headers.
