Robin Roefs: 6/10
Can’t be blamed for any of the goals, although could maybe have waited for the stutter penalty. Didn’t have any other saves to make and the rest of his game was fine.
Nordi Mukiele: N/A
Wasn’t able to get going before picking up an injury and having to go off early.
Dan Ballard: 7/10
Did really well to win the penalty and won the battle with Jiminez in open play but the Mexican managed to find far too much space from a corner to open the scoring.
Omar Alderete: 6/10
Not sure he’s fully fit, looks to be labouring a bit. Still competed well and made some important
clearances.
Trai Hume (C): 7/10
Made a couple of vital potentially goal saving blocks and was solid enough at left back. Sliced a good chance from the edge of the box from a well worked corner in the first half.
Enzo Le Fee: 8/10
Was one of our only bright sparks today, always seemed to get himself a yard of space and was looking to drive us forward. Absolutely smashed in his penalty.
Noah Sadiki: 7/10
Covered lots of ground in the middle of the park, was always available for a pass and got forward when he could. had a good attempt from distance and showed a great bit of skill near the corner flag in the first half.
Jocelin Ta Bi: 6/10
Was looking lively down the right, although there were some instances of him being caught out defensively, but picked up a knock and had to go off before halftime.
Habib Diarra: 5/10
Had a quiet game, couldn’t really get into it. Did set up the good chance for Angulo just before both were subbed off though.
Nilson Angulo: 6/10
Had a few bright moments but like Ta Bi, had some issues defensively. Had a good chance with his last kick of the game but saw his effort tipped over, unfortunately without the team getting a corner.
Brian Brobbey: 5/10
Struggled to get into the game today, had a bright moment early in the second half when he linked up around the box but chose to pass rather than shoot, and the pass ended up being blocked anyway. Needlessly gave away the penalty with a shirt pull.
Substitutes
Lutsharel Geertruida: 7/10
Was good on the ball when he came on and did well defensively. Had a hand in the penalty when he did brilliantly to keep the ball in initially and set up the chance that Mundle spurned.
Romaine Mundle: 4/10
Geertruida did so well to win the ball and play in Mundle but the winger sliced the ball wide, that proved decisive with Fulham taking the lead shortly afterwards. Struggled to keep hold of the ball while he was on.
Granit Xhaka (C): 6/10
Showed his strength and passing range when he came on, getting the ball forward as often as he could.
Eliezer Mayenda: 6/10
Made some driving runs down the right wing and created a half chance for Isidor.
Wilson Isidor: 6/10
Had a half chance when Mayenda played the ball to him, it was slightly behind him though and could only scoop the chance over.
Man of the Match: Enzo Le Fee
I thought Le Fee was easily our best player today, even before he smashed home the penalty. Used the ball really well and found it easy to get away from Fulham players, always looking to make something happen and never stopped trying to win the ball back when Fulham had possession.
