Match report
The London Derby from Sunday was not able to offer much in the way of TargetMouth action until halfway through the second half, when Dominic Solanke and when Willian got close.
Solanke should have done better from close by, before Willian curled upright from the right hand.
Nevertheless, Fulham decided the game to their advantage with two strikes in the final phase, both from replacements.
Muniz broke the impasse with a neat first finish and, 10 minutes later, Sessegnon curled in a sublime strike only 57 seconds after the rise, so that the points for Marco Silva were secured on the occasion of his 200th Premier League match.
Silva's silk climb to eighth place and within four points of the top four, which was unbeaten for the first time since 2009 in three consecutive Premier League matches.

Data Debrief: Silva's Super Subs Strike Again
Silva became the second Portuguese coach to supervise 200 Premier League matches, after Jose Mourinho.
De Fulham -Baas was grateful to his bank for being able to mark the monument in style, not much to separate the teams for that – indeed, the general expected goals that fight against his own story, with Fulham who registered opportunities worth 0.99 XG to Spurs' 0.98.
The strikes of Muniz and Sessegnon mean that the Cottagers scored 13 Premier League goals this season, more than any other side.
In the meantime, immediately prior to international breaks, games have recently become something of a bugbear for Spurs, who have now lost each of their last six of such matches in the Premier League.
