Fulham are still in relegation danger after a 3-1 defeat at Arsenal.

Emmanuel Adebayor and Gilberto both scored in the last five minutes as the Gunners stepped up a gear after conceding an equaliser in the 78th minute.

Fulham remain in 16th place in the Premiership

Julio Baptista opened the scoring for Arsenal in the fourth minute, but Simon Davies equalised with 12 minutes to play, looping the ball into an empty net when Jens Lehmann met a cross with a poor punch.

Adebayor restored Arsenal's lead in the 85th minute, slotting a low shot past Antti Niemi on the counter attack and Gilberto scored a penalty soon after when Moritz Volz hauled down Alexander Hleb.

Fulham remain in 16th place in the Premiership, one point above the relegation zone with two games to play and they have only picked up three points from their last ten Premiership fixtures.

Arsenal stay in fourth place but they are already guaranteed a place in the Champions League qualifiers.
