Clint Dempsey took his usual place in Fulham's starting lineup and scored the second goal in a 3-0 shutout of West Brom on Tuesday. Simon Davies opened the scoring in the 45th minute, with Dempsey making it 2-0 in the 56th by heading in a corner kick. Brede Hangeland finished off the scoring in the 65th minute. The win moves Fulham into 13th-place in the Premier League.
"Goals change games and we have struggled in that respect," Fulham manager Mark Hughes told his club's official site. "But we got a good goal before half-time which settled us and we went away from them in the end. Draws will give you some comforts in terms of how you perform but that doesn't move you up the league... three points and wins do.
