Venezia, Fulham win as Adams, Iwobi deliver decisive goals

Akor Adams scored the winning goal for Venezia in their match against Napoli, according to Premium Times.

Alex Iwobi scored the only goal in Fulham's 1-0 victory on Saturday, ending the club's winless start to the Premier League season. Punch and Punch Nigeria report that Iwobi's 33rd-minute strike deflected off Lucas Herrington and went under Hull goalkeeper Konstantinos Tzolakis, securing three points that lifted Fulham off the bottom of the table.

These reports note that the goal followed a pass from Sander Berge after Hull failed to clear their lines. However, Daily Post Nigeria describes the opponent as Ipswich Town and states the match took place at Craven Cottage.

The win ends a six-match league winless streak under head coach Álvaro Arbeloa, who took over from Marco Silva in July. Arbeloa described the result as massive ahead of a demanding week that includes an away match at Coventry and an EFL Cup tie against Crystal Palace.
