Fulham 3-0 Charlton: Rodallega brace moves Cottagers out of relegation zone

Fulham 3-0 Charlton: Rodallega brace moves Cottagers out of relegation zone

Fulham climbed out of the Championship relegation zone for the first time this season as Hugo Rodallega's brace shot down a helpless Charlton.

Caretaker manager Kit Symons further strengthened his claims for the top job as he masterminded a fifth victory in eight games since stepping in after Felix Magath's disastrous reign.

The Cottagers were in control from the off and deservedly went ahead on six minutes as Scott Parker rattled in a fierce strike via the crossbar following a smart one-two with Ross McCormack.

Just six minutes later Charlton were left with a mountain to climb as Rodallega grabbed his first of the evening, tucking in an easy close-range finish after McCormack's effort was parried by Stephen Henderson.

Any hopes Craven Cottage had of a runaway victory were stifled somewhat by a battling second half display from the Addicks, with Franck Moussa, Johnnie Jackson and 17-year-old substitute Karlan Ahearne-Grant all guilty of wasting chances.

And the visitors were made to pay for their profligacy moments from the end when Rodallega was fed by Lasse Vigen Christensen, stepped inside Tal Ben Haim and guided a silky finish into the bottom corner.

The result takes Fulham to 14th in the table, while Charlton remain seventh after a second loss of the season.
