Two goals in three minutes by Aleksandar Mitrovic helped promoted Fulham to a first win of the Premier League campaign on Sunday when they beat Burnley 4-2 at Craven Cottage.
Jean Michael Seri, an Ivory Coast international who was another of the Londoners' expensive close-season signings, opened the scoring in only the fourth minute but Jeff Hendrick soon equalised.
Mitrovic, signed from Newcastle after a loan period last season, struck in the 36th and 38th minutes before James Tarkowski cut the arrears to 3-2 by halftime.
