The head-to-head record between the two teams before the game was evenly balanced with three wins each and five draws.

Schlupp, who replaced his fellow Ghanaian forward Jordan Ayew in the 76th minute, made an immediate impact at Craven Cottage. Fulham had taken the lead in the 52nd minute through Rodrigo Muniz's header from Timothy Castagne's cross.

However, Schlupp's moment of magic arrived in the 87th minute. Receiving the ball outside the box from Adam Wharton, he unleashed an incredible strike that rocketed into the top left corner of the net, securing a valuable point for Crystal Palace.
