Sheyi Ojo was on target as Fulham secured a 2-1 victory over Barnsley in Saturday's Championship tie.

The Liverpool loanee increased his tally to three goals in 12 league appearances this campaign as Slavisa Jokanovic's men grabbed their eighth league win in the 2017-18 season.

It was a cagey affair before the interval as both teams failed to break the deadlock at the Craven Cottage.

After the restart, Togo international Floyd Ayite fired the hosts ahead in the 54th minutes before Tom Bradshaw headed home a leveller for Barnsley, 14 minutes later.

In what was turning out to be a draw, Ojo restored the Cottagers' lead in the 72nd minute with a stunning cross that looped over goalkeeper Adam Davies.
