LONDON — Already-relegated Fulham kept its first clean sheet of 2019 and beat Everton 2-0 in the Premier League on Saturday with goals from captain Tom Cairney and Ryan Babel. Everton’s Dominic Calvert-Lewin hit the post as the Toffees’ three-match unbeaten run came to an end with a wasted opportunity to go seventh. Cairney opened the scoring 31 seconds after the restart, sending a low finish past Jordan Pickford from just inside the area after good work from Babel. Fulham also had a goal disallowed as Mitrovic was judged to have fouled Kurt Zouma to allow Ryan Sessegnon to fire in. Fulham extended its lead as Babel collected Mitrovic’s pass before coolly dinking the ball over the onrushing Pickford.
