After the EFL Cup ga against Preston, the next task in Fulham's ga fixtures was a lineup of premier league gas starting with a clash against Newcastle United at ho.
Fulham carried their unstoppable montum into this ga.
Despite playing against a team that was on paper stronger than them, in front of their ho fans, Fulham did not let up as Sam orchestrated this ga, creating another masterpiece in front of Fulham supporters.
Fulham opened the floodgates as early as the 5th minute as Raul Jinez lashed into an Emile Smith Rowe pass, unleashing a powerful volleyed shot into the net that left Nick Pope, the Newcastle goalkeeper with little chance.
After that goal, Newcastle upped the tempo as they tried to get into this ga but they were thwarted by a single player nad Samuel Moses.
Sam started in attacking midfield but considering the threat of their opponents, he often drifted deeper in the midfield to help weather the Newcastle offensive. It was safe to say that this was a defensive masterclass from him.
Defending was never part of Sam's great points, and he didn't exactly like it either, but playing with Austin in the NPFL taught him to do the dirty work.
And since he had the stamina to do it, why not?
Sam ran all over the midfield, playing a free role in this ga as he tortured the Newcastle players and their attacking rhythm, winning the ball back at every slight opportunity he got.
He set Raul Jinez up with another opportunity only for Nick Pope to pull out a sensational save, but Fulham doubled their lead soon after and this ti, it was from Emile Smith Rowe.
After a few twists and turns just outside the Newcastle 18-yard box, with a perfectly executed Cruyff turn, Emile Smith Rowe burst into the box before shooting the ball towards the bottom left corner.
Nick Pope stood no chance.
"GOALLLL…!" Craven Cottage exploded for the second ti this ga; the fans felt on top of the world.
The first half ended 2-0 in Fulham's favor.
Imdiately after the second half started though, Craven Cottage was stunned as Harvey Barnes scored a goal within just 1 minute after the restart in the 46th minute of this ga.
That goal definitely rattled nerves but Sam dug in, locking his area of the pitch completely as with him leading the charge, his teammates stayed compact.
For the next 45 minutes, it was attack after attack from Newcastle United but Fulham thwarted it all as Sam played the role of a destroyer today.
But then, after 90 minutes, in additional ti, Sam finally capped off his sensational performance with an assist as he played a perfect cross for Reiss Nelson to poke into the net.
The ga ended 3-1 in Fulham's favor.
Sam got only 1 assist today but his all-round ga stole the show, he won another consecutive man of the match award.
In exactly a week's ti after playing Newcastle United at ho, the Fulham squad traveled to Nottingham where they took on Nottingham Forest.
Visiting the City Ground again, it was just as tough as Sam experienced his first ti. Against Nottingham Forest at ho, Fulham were forced to sweat and work hard.
The first half was a high-octane affair that ended in a goalless draw.
The intensity increased even more in the second half. Unlike the Newcastle ga, this was a highly intense ga that had everything else except the goals.
But in the and, after constantly torturing the Nottingham defense all night, Raul Jinez was tripped in the Nottingham box as he won a penalty for his team.
This striker confidently stepped up to score the penalty and he paid back the faith of his coach, scoring the goal to give Fulham the lead.
For the rest of the ga, Nottingham Forest tried to no avail to equalize the ga. Fulham also tried to extend their lead but buoyed by the loud noise being made by their fans, Nottingham Forest was highly compact defensively.
It was no wonder the only goal of the ga so far ca from a penalty.
In the end, despite how much Sam tried to impose himself on this ga, he could not influence it the way he wanted.
But still, Fulham won. That was what mattered.
Fulham won 0-1, extending their unbeaten run to 8 gas.
After 6 exciting matchdays of the English premier league where Fulham was on an unprecedented run of 6 wins out of 6 gas, this was how the premier league table looked like currently.
