Just eight minutes later, Kusi-Asare delivered the decisive moment, timing his run perfectly before steering home from a Macauley Zepa pass to turn the game on its head and put Fulham 2\u20131 up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chelsea pushed hard late on, but Fulham defended their lead with determination, helped by substitutes who added fresh energy in the closing stages. The result continues an encouraging run of form for Fulham\u2019s youngsters and underlines Kusi-Asare\u2019s growing influence in the final third.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The winning goal on derby day. \u26aa\ufe0f <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/NBQ3wVjJRj\">pic.twitter.com\/NBQ3wVjJRj<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Fulham Academy (@FulhamAcademy) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FulhamAcademy\/status\/2042724318594109933?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">April 10, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Swedish-Ghanaian forward Jonah Kusi-Asare was the match-winner as Fulham U21 came from behind to beat Chelsea U21 2\u20131 at Motspur&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":246906,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_kadence_starter_templates_imported_post":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[93,226,227],"class_list":["post-246905","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-all-stories","tag-chelsea","tag-fulham","tag-jonah-kusi-asare-2"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/learn.oshtree.org\/b-class\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/246905","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/learn.oshtree.org\/b-class\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/learn.oshtree.org\/b-class\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/learn.oshtree.org\/b-class\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/learn.oshtree.org\/b-class\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=246905"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/learn.oshtree.org\/b-class\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/246905\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/learn.oshtree.org\/b-class\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=246905"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/learn.oshtree.org\/b-class\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=246905"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/learn.oshtree.org\/b-class\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=246905"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
