West Ham United vs Fulham

Fulham edged a frantic London derby at the London Stadium, beating West Ham 3-2 to reach the Carabao Cup fourth round. It was a match packed with fast turnarounds, settled only by a moment of magic from the bench late on. Rodrigo Muniz headed Fulham ahead in the 13th minute, but Rodrigo Morato leveled for West Ham just three minutes later. Cesar Palacios restored the visitors' lead before the break, only for Pablo Pereira de Jesus to equalize deep into first-half stoppage time. The decisive blow came in the 78th minute when substitute Oscar Bobb danced into the box and slotted home. West Ham nearly snatched a late equalizer, but Taty Castellanos' tap-in was cleared off the line by Timothy Castagne in the 88th minute. The win gives manager Alvaro Arbeloa his second victory in charge of Fulham and sends the Cottagers into the next round, while West Ham exit the competition despite twice fighting back from behind.
