Fulham secured a place in the FA Cup fourth round with a 1-0 victory over Rotherham United, courtesy of a spectacular goal from Bobby De Cordova-Reid. The Jamaica international’s long-range effort in the 24th minute was the highlight in a match where Fulham dominated. Manager Marco Silva praised De Cordova-Reid as a “top professional” deserving of his success.
The game saw Fulham make eight changes, including Marek Rodak starting in goal. Rotherham, showing a compact defense, had a goal disallowed for offside. Fulham’s control over the match was evident, with the Premier League side creating several chances but unable to extend their lead.
Rotherham’s manager Leam Richardson acknowledged the need for improved quality in the final third but praised his team’s efforts against a superior Fulham side.
