New Fulham midfielder Emile Smith Rowe spoke after the 2-1 home win over Leicester City. Scoring his first Premier League goal for his new club this season.

The 24-year-old midfielder was on the pitch for Fulham for 69 minutes, scoring once. And has enjoyed a fine run of form since joining the club in a club-record £34million deal. And he is pleased with his performances.

Fulham’s bright start was undone when a misplaced pass by Calvin Bassey put his side under pressure. Before Leicester equalised from the subsequent corner in the 38th minute.

Brighton loanee Facundo Buonanotte delivered a wonderfully curled inswinging corner. Which met the head of defender Faes, โปรโมชั่น ufabet who powered his effort into the bottom left-hand corner to make it 1-1.

The goal was originally ruled out for offside but referee Darren Bond was sent to the monitor. And deemed Jamie Vardy to have not interfered with Bernd Leno’s efforts to make a save.

“I’m quite relieved because it was my first goal after a long time without scoring in the Premier League. I’m happy to do it again. Of course it won the game for the team and I’m very happy. Playing my first game at home, I’ve got a great reception from the team-mates, the staff and the love from the fans. Of course, it’s great,” said Smith Rowe.

Fulham’s next game is at Birmingham City in the Carabao Cup second round this midweek, 28 August 2024, before returning to Premier League action at Ipswich Town at the end of August.
