Sunderland vs Fulham: Premier League Match Report - Part 2
As soon as the second-half kicked off, Sunderland seemed to be on a different level as they went on to test Fulham’s resilience.
In just the 51st minute, Sessegnon came close to level the score for Sunderland. The Black Cats player raced on to a through ball, and went on to force a brilliant save from Mark Schwarzer.
In the 54th minute, Fulham almost created a moment of magic. Gudjohnsen received a cross-field ball and played a brilliant touch to create space for himself. He then went on to belt in a low cross towards Zamora, who slid in at the far post, but
the ball managed to sail just over his boot and as a result, Fulham were denied one of the best goals of the season.
In the 61st minute, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Steve-Sidwell-c34181 and Zamora played some one-twos, before Zamora played a beautiful ball down the left. Sidwell then raced on to the ball and cut it back across and Simon Davies went in to smack a low, commanding finish into the
back of the net.
In the 72nd minute of the game, Fulham managed to go three nil up as Davies scored his second and Fulham’s third goal of the game. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Zamora-c40983 once again delivered a dangerous ball into the Sunderland area and with Mingolet and Turner colliding, all
