Manchester United nemesis Danny Murphy hit a sweet 20-yarder with the sidestep of his right boot, the ball bouncing of a diving Kuszczak, to fire Fulham ahead. The Cottagers needed 20 seconds after the break to double their advantage, Dempsey rising high to head the ball down to in-form Bobby Zamora who cracked in his fourth goal in three games. A terrible United performance was compounded with the goal of the game 15 minutes from time, Zamora did fanatically to control a high ball on his chest and play on Damien Duff who cracked in a third on the volley.
