It was a day of fives in the EPL yesterday after Fulham, Everton, and Nottingham Forest secured wins in the last of EPL GW 35 games. As things are shaping up, there is heated competition even in the middle and bottom of the EPL table as the league now only has 3 game weeks to go.

It's Five For Fulham as they Beat Leicester in EPL GW 35

Fulham put on a very strong performance to beat Leicester City 5-3 in the last games of EPL GW 35. Leicester were also playing well but lacked the fervor that Fulham was having an abundance of. The game saw both teams pitted against each other at a time when they are both in need of as many additional points and goals as possible to improve the EPL Table rankings.

Braces for Willian and Tom Cairney as Fulham beat Leicester

Former Chelsea and Arsenal winger Willian scored a brace for Fulham. He opened the scoring in the 10th minute. He then scored his second in the 70th minute. Carlos Vinicius also went in with a superb strike in the 18th minute to make it 3. The braces were not done, however, as Tom Cairney also scored a brace in the match. Cairney scored his first in the 44th minute, following it up with his second in the 51st minute.

A Brace for Leicester's Harvey Barnes

The game saw yet another brace, this time from Leicester City's Harvey Barnes who scored a double for his team. Barnes scored his first in the 59th minute, following it up with his second in the 89th minute. James Maddison scored Leicester's third goal by way of a penalty in the 81st minute.

The performance was a commendable improvement for Leicester who seem to be just finding themselves as the season is winding down. Fulham are now tenth in the EPL Table with 48 points while Leicester are eighteenth with 30 points.
