  WHAT HAPPENED?

  Fulham drew Bournemouth 2-2 on Sunday as the Cottagers secured a point courtesy of a 73rd minute header from Harry Wilson off a cross from U.S. international Antonee Robinson. The American's in-swinging cross found the head of the Welsh attacker for their second goal of the match.

  Fellow CONCACAF star Raul Jimenez opened the scoring for Fulham in the 40th minute before the Cherries' Evanilson drew level in the 53rd minute. An 89th minute equalizer from Bournemouth's Dango Ouattara brought them level, with the two sides sharing the spoils at the end of the day.

  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Robinson has been in fine form of late, with the 27-year-old recording his fourth assist in December. Fulham, meanwhile, have gone on a spectacular stretch of late as well, with the Cottagers now unbeaten in their last seven matches, with just one loss in their last 11.

  The American put on a fine performance against Bournemouth, too, completing 78 percent of his passes on the day while recording 70 touches on the ball and winning seven of 11 total ground duels.

  Fulham now sit one point out of European competition, trailing fifth-place Manchester City in sixth as they head into the new year.

  WHAT NEXT FOR ROBINSON AND FULHAM?

  Fulham's calendar year has wrapped, with their next return to the pitch coming in 2025. The Cottagers will also look to see if they can improve their squad this January in the winter transfer market, while Robinson himself will look to evaluate his options.

  The U.S. star has been heavily linked with a move away from Craven Cottage, with league leaders Liverpool recently emerging as a potential suitor.
