He scored the equaliser in a 1-1 stalemate against Preston North End on Tuesday night, following Ryan Ledson’s opening goal at Deepdale.

Prior to Preston’s 16-15 victory in the penalty shootout, Reiss played 86 minutes.

He entered the game in the 74th minute of the Cottagers’ 3-1 victory over Newcastle United over the weekend and scored Fulham’s third goal of the match in the 92nd minute.

The hosts took an early advantage thanks to Raul Jimenez, and former gunner Emile Smith Rowe made it 2-0. However, Newcastle responded in the second half by scoring a goal through Harvey Barnes.

Nevertheless, Nelson permitted supporters to exhale a sense of relief when he concluded the game following Bruno Guimaraes’s turnover.

Reiss expressed his satisfaction with the outcome of the contest at the Cottage, stating, “Amazing result today.” “We are all overjoyed and overjoyed with the outcome.” Great ambiance here, guys. Cheers. Please, proceed!
