AFCON 2025
Fulham missed the chance to close in on the Premier League top-six, drawing 0-0 with Southampton in a lackluster encounter.
The first half was uneventful, with Fulham’s Harry Wilson providing the only sparks with two long-range efforts that failed to trouble Aaron Ramsdale.
Alex Iwobi forced a sharp save from the Southampton goalkeeper, but the visitors’ resilient defense held firm.
In the second half, Southampton began to venture forward, with Adam Armstrong testing Bernd Leno after being slipped through by substitute Cameron Archer.
Fulham pushed for a winner, but Iwobi and Wilson missed chances to secure all three points.
The draw means Fulham have won just once in their last six matches, which is a sharp contrast from their fine form to start the season.
Southampton remain bottom of the table but new boss Ivan Juric will see this as a huge point.
Calvin Bassey, Iwobi, Paul Onuachu, and Joe Aribo all played in this game to represent the Super Eagles of Nigeria.
