Fulham 2, West Brom 0: Full time report
Bobby Zamora finally ended his long barren streak as Fulham condemned the top-flight's bottom side to a hopelessly one-sided 2-0 defeat.
Zamora had played more than 29 hours of Premier League football since his last goal but tapped home the opener from point-blank range before strike partner Andy Johnson added his ninth of the season to seal a well-earned victory.
The home side struck the woodwork four times with Clint Dempsey, Brede Hangeland and Danny Murphy, twice, the men to miss out, while Roman Bednar missed an injury-time penalty for the visitors.
Johnson showed an early willingness to run at the opposition, tempting Zuiverloon into a trip 25 yards from goal after four minutes.
Captain Murphy struck the free-kick brilliantly, curling his shot towards the near corner only for Scott Carson to tip the ball onto the post at full stretch.
Zamora was alert to the rebound but Abdoulaye Meite won the race to clear.
Fulham's dominance continued as Johnson collected a wonderful pass from Davies and sprinted towards goal.
He appealed for a penalty after tumbling under pressure from Leon Barnett but there did not appear to be any significant contact.
The hosts' confidence continued to grow and in the 19th minute Dickson Etuhu stung Carson's palms with a sweetly struck first-time volley from the edge of the area.
The visitors were holding on for dear life at times but were helped in the 23rd minute when Dempsey scooped his shot high and wide after good work from Johnson and Zamora.
The American was merely finding his range, though, and moments later took advantage of some reticent defending to arrow a swerving effort goalwards from nearly 25 yards.
Carson was comfortably beaten in the air but for a second time the woodwork came to West Brom's rescue.
Luck remained with the midlands side, Murphy striking the woodwork for a third time in the 33rd minute.
Johnson and Zamora carved the chance and Murphy's measured effort once again left Carson sprawling, only for the ball to clip the crossbar and bounce out.
