- Willian's two penalties, including a 94th-minute winner, helped Fulham secure a 3-2 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers in a Premier League match dominated by VAR decisions.
- Wolves manager Gary O'Neil expressed his frustration with VAR, stating that the technology had 'cost' his team and was negatively impacting his reputation and the club.
- O'Neil claimed that referee Michael Salisbury admitted to making a mistake in awarding Fulham's first penalty, and argued that Fulham's Carlos Vinicius should have been sent off for a headbutt.
- The win, Fulham's first in five league games, moved the team up to 14th in the Premier League standings, level on points with Wolves.
- This match marked the second time a league game has had three second-half penalties scored, after Everton vs. Newcastle in September 2003.
