Fulham boss Scott Parker hailed his players for their FA Cup victory over Aston Villa.

Substitute Harry Arter scored moments after coming on to send Fulham into the fourth round.

Anthony Knockaert had put the Championship club ahead with a stunning strike before Anwar El Ghazi equalised less than 10 minutes later.

But Arter restored the hosts' lead with a blistering effort of his own from 30 yards - his first Fulham goal.

Parker said, "The most important thing was the result - but, more importantly, I thought the performance was outstanding.

"We caused them a lot of problems; we got in the right areas.

"Winning becomes a habit like losing does. Ultimately, you need a winning mentality and a habit of being winners, and that is going to take time. You can't just click your fingers, but games like this help against very good opposition."
