Since taking over Fulham back in February, Felix Magath has lifted his men from hopeless to possibly avoiding Championship football next season.
Norwich on the other hand, have continued to struggle and had controversially taken the drastic action of sacking manager Chris Houghton with only five league games to go.
So with Hugo Rodallega scoring for Fulham at the 40th minute, the Cottagers saw their chance to take all three points from the match and held on for the victory.
A 1-0 defeat means Norwich are still two points above Fulham who sit in the danger zone.
With Manchester United and three of the current top five making up their last four games, the Canaries might regret not getting anything from what was surely their last winnable match.
