Antoine Robinson provided two assists in Fulham's game against West Ham United, and although the team eventually lost 2-3, his performance was outstanding.
In the match, Fulham lost two goals in just two minutes, with Carlos Soler and Tomasz Soucek scoring in the 31st and 33rd minutes respectively. However, in the 51st minute, Robinson made his first assist of the game, helping Alex Iwobi to equalize. However, West Ham United soon widened the gap to two goals again in the 67th minute through Lucas Paqueta. Despite this, Robinson assisted Iwobi to score again in the 78th minute, changing the score to 2-3, but in the end Fulham failed to equalize further.
With these two assists, Robinson has made nine assists this season, ranking third in the Premier League assists list, behind only Mohamed Salah (13) and Bukayo Saka (10). With Saka currently out due to injury, Robinson has a chance to surpass the Arsenal star in the future.
Robinson's outstanding offensive performance has also attracted the attention of many Premier League giants, including Liverpool and Manchester United. According to ESPN, Fulham is eager to keep this key player in order to qualify for European competitions this season. However, this defeat has dealt a blow to Fulham's European dream, and the team is currently ranked ninth in the Premier League standings.
According to Opta statistics, Robinson is one of only two defenders in the top five leagues this season to have two assists in a single game. The other is Nuno Tavares, who is currently on loan from Arsenal to Serie A Lazio.
Fulham will soon have their next game, this Saturday they will be away to Leicester City, currently ranked 19th in the Premier League. This game is an important opportunity for Fulham to regain the feeling of winning.
