Fulham suffered a 3–1 home defeat to Everton at Craven Cottage on 10 May 2025, a result that severely dented their hopes of qualifying for European competition. Raúl Jiménez had given Fulham a 17th-minute lead with a powerful header from an Emile Smith Rowe assist. However, Everton responded just before halftime with a deflected shot from Vitaliy Mykolenko in the 45+3rd minute. In the second half, Everton took control with two quick goals: Michael Keane scored a header in the 70th minute, and Beto added a strike in the 74th minute following a goalkeeping error by Bernd Leno. Fulham's manager, Marco Silva, expressed frustration over his team's vulnerability to set-pieces and poor recent form, while Everton's manager, David Moyes, praised his team's resilience in the comeback win.
