Harry Wilson insists his match-winning stoppage-time brace was ‘LUCKY’ – but Dimitar Berbatov heaps praise on the Fulham star’s ‘beautiful touch’

Fulham star Harry WIlson has admitted his brace in the win over Brentford was ‘lucky. 

Wilson came off the bench in the west London and scored twice in stoppage time as Marco Silva‘s side claimed a 2-1 victory at Craven Cottage. 

The Welshman met a cross by Adama Traore and flicked the ball up in the air and into the net with his back to goal after 92 minutes. 

He then got his second of the night four minutes later with a stooping header from Antonee Robinson‘s cross.  

Speaking to Sky Sports after the match, Wilson said: ‘It was an amazing feeling to come on and get the two goals to win the game. We deserved it, we kept them pinned in throughout.

‘The manager told me to find space and when the ball gets wide try and get in the box and that’s what I did. 

‘They both went in but not how I would have wanted! The first one I just helped it on to the back post and the second one was more lucky.

‘I was trying to head it into the other corner but it hit my shoulder and went in! The atmosphere was great all night and that was up there with the best I’ve heard it.’

Dimitar Berbatov, who was a studio guest, was full of praise for Wilson, telling him: ‘I think it is a great touch. It is a beautiful touch and it deserved to go into the back of the net.’

Brentford had taken the  lead after 24 minutes thanks to Vitaly Janelt’s stunning long-range strike.
