Fulham 1 City 2: Player ratings

21 March 2010 17:04
6 GIVEN: Had nothing to do until the penalty, and was well protected in a nervy finish 6 ZABALETA: Eager to get forward, even though he had his hands full against Duff and Davies 7 TOURE: Early clearance saved a goal and will have boosted his confidence. A solid return 7 KOMPANY: Brave in the air, and is proving himself to be City?s in-form centre-back 6 GARRIDO: Didn?t always look secure, but slotted in well enough after his late call-up 8 JOHNSON: Very unlucky not to score during a terrific 15-minute period after the break 8 VIEIRA: Showed he?s still got what it takes to police midfield with a crunching early challenge on Murphy 7 BARRY: Did a great job alongside Vieira until he unluckily conceded the penalty that gave Fulham a way back in 8 BELLAMY: A pacy threat in the first half, and didn?t neglect his defensive duties either 8 TEVEZ: Inspired in the first half, Fulham remembered to close him down after the break 7 SANTA CRUZ: Worked hard up front and might have had more than one goal SUBSTITUTES DE JONG (for Santa Cruz, 79): Should have had a goal in a frantic finish. 6 WRIGHT-PHILLIPS (for Johnson, 85): Too late to mark ONUOHA (for Bellamy, 90): Too late to mark UNUSED: Taylor, Onuoha, Richards, Sylvinho, Ireland. REFEREE: Lee Probert: Gave Fulham?s penalty on the advice of his linesman ? and it looked harsh. 5 | Submit Comments| Comments (26)| PrintWhat's this?
