NEWCASTLE RATINGS: Karl Darlow - 7: Called into action in first 10 seconds saving long-range Mitrovic snap-shot. Not huge amount to do but good when called upon. Getty
DeAndre Yedlin - 6: Rare start for the American right-back who looked to get forward whenever possible. Good cross into box in first half that Joelinton headed over. Found Robinson a handful down his flank. Reuters
Federico Fernandez - 6: Nearly gave away penalty when he fouled Anguissa on edge of box after 25 minutes but still plenty of other more timely challenges from the Argentine who was forced off at half-time. Reuters
Ciaran Clark - 7: Impressive show form the former Aston Villa defender who is a calm presence at the back. Fulham furious that penalty wasn’t given in injury time when ball hit his hand. Probably would have been given at start of season. Reuters
Paul Dummett - 7: Injury-ravaged full-back, playing in first game since January, will have been pleased with what was a solid return to action. AFP
Sean Longstaff - 6: Fantastic crunching tackle on Robinson to win back possession after quarter of an hour and prevent Fulham counter-attack. Good defensive work from the Geordie midfielder but really poor distribution at times. Ambitious long-range free-kick easily saved by Areola. EPA
Jonjo Shelvey – 5: Midfielder looked off the pace as the game generally past him by. Wasted free-kick in perfect place just outside of box just after break when he curled harmlessly over bar. Reuters
Matt Ritchie - 6: Saw plenty of ball early on, a couple of good crosses, one woeful shot that nearly hit the corner flag. His pass set-up chance for Almiron that saw Paraguayan almost open the scoring. Comical own-goal that went in off his face. EPA
Miguel Almiron - 6: Had low shot in first half well saved by Areola. Buzzed around constantly and his pace always provides a threat although has a frustrating habit of over-reacting to challenges. AP
Joelinton - 5: Little or no threat in and around the penalty area in opening 45 minutes. Headed chance way over bar in first half. Could have put Wilson through on goal but awful pass went straight to Fulham player. Let Adarabioyo have free header that led to Ritchie own goal. Made himself chance in second half but break into box was blocked by Areola. EPA
Callum Wilson - 7: Saw header after 10 minutes easily saved by Areola but service was non-existent in first half. Brought down by Andersen for the penalty that he converted for his eight league goal of the season. EPA
SUBS: Isaac Hayden – (On for Fernandez 46’) 7: Back in a central defensive role due to injury and illness but slotted in seamlessly. AP
Dwight Gayle – (On for Joelinton 75’) 6. No chance to grab a late goal. AP
Ryan Fraser – (On for Dummett 79’) N/A. Getty
FULHAM RATINGS: Alphonse Areola - 7: Little to do in first half until saving Almiron shot six minutes before the break. Got down bravely to save at feet of Joelinton in second half. Getty
Ola Aina - 7: Great stepover and change of pace to leave Almiron for dead after 10 minutes. Good all-round performance from the Nigerian full-back. AP
Joachim Andersen - 6: Hardly troubled by Newcastle attack in first half. One perfectly-timed challenge to deny Joelinton chance in second half but then gave away penalty with clumsy challenge on Brazilian minutes later that saw him sent-off. Fulham were in control until his red card. EPA
Tosin Adarabioyo - 7: Headed chance from corner in first half wide of the target and it was another of his headers that forced own-goal from Ritchie. Getty
Antonee Robinson - 8: Fancied his chances going forward up against fellow American Yedlin and was constant threat down left. Reuters
Tom Cairney - 7: Solid from the midfielder and captain. Did waste good chance at start of second half when his acrobatic effort was easily saved by Darlow. Sacrificed by manager after Andersen red card. Getty
Mario Lemina - 6: Beautiful chipped pass to set up chance that Cordova-Reid failed to take advantage of in first half. Fantastic workrate from the midfielder. PA
Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa 7 – Fine run down left and good ball into middle for early chance that Lookman should have done better with. A powerful presence in the middle of the park. PA
Bobby De Cordova-Reid - 7: Late replacement for the injured Ivan Cavaleiro and should have opened the scoring after 32 minutes but completely miss-hit first-time shot. EPA
Ademola Lookman - 6: Header after 12 minutes comfortably saved by Darlow. Felt he should have had first-half penalty following challenge by Yedlin – referee and VAR thought otherwise. Stung Darlow’s hands with second-half strike. PA
Aleksandar Mitrovic - 4: Showed early intent against old club with ambitious strike from distance in first 10 seconds but that was as good as it got. One dreadful touch five minutes after break wasted what was great chance for Fulham to double their lead. PA
SUBS: Michael Hector – (On for Cairney 64’) 6: Booked for cynical foul on Fraser in injury-time. EPA
