Bulgarian Dimitar Berbatov, Pajtim Kasami, Steve Sidwell and Philippe Senderos scored stunning goals as Fulham sealed an impressive 4:1 victory over Crystal Palace.

Adrian Mariappa's early header put the Eagles ahead, only for Kasami and Sidwell to give Fulham a 2-1 lead with stunning volleys before half-time.

After the break the Cottagers picked up where they left off. Berbatov met Ruiz's delivery with a deft header into the far corner, scoring his first league goal of the season.

Five minutes later Philippe Senderos sealed Fulham victory, claiming a rare goal with an acrobatic shot from another Ruiz corner which squirmed underneath Speroni.
