Leeds manager Jesse Marsch faces an unclear future after Fulham rallied from behind to win at Elland Road, dropping the Whites to the Premier League’s bottom three and leaving them without a win in eight games.
Bobby Decordova-Reid and Willian scored second-half goals for the Cottagers, with the former directing a header and the latter scoring from close range to spark a riot in the home fans.
The final ten minutes were played to the sound of chanting against Marsch and the club’s board, with the final whistle met with boos from the stands.
The home team had led through Rodrigo’s header in the 20th minute, looking to improve their terrible league position and the standing of their troubled manager.
But familiar defensive failings again undid them as they allowed Aleksandar Mitrovic an unchallenged close-range header from a corner just six minutes later.
In what is becoming a familiar story, the Whites looked huffed and puffed in attack but looked vulnerable all afternoon.
It took a superb goal-line block from Marc Roca to stop Harrison Reed scoring the opener and a fine save from Illan Meslier to stop Andreas Pereira making it 2-1 before the break.
Decordova-Reid and Willian took their chances when they came to complete the turnaround and ensure that not even Crysencio Summerville’s late goal could alter the result.
It gives this enterprising and confident Fulham side a second successive win following Thursday’s 3-0 win over Aston Villa and leaves Marsch to an uncertain fate.
