Fulham Holds Brentford to Goalless Draw as Leno's Late Save Secures Point
A 0-0 draw between Brentford and Fulham has left the Bees narrowly missing a top-six spot, thanks to a stunning last-minute save by Bernd Leno. The match, a west London derby, saw few scoring opportunities, with Leno's heroics in stoppage time denying Dango Ouattara a late winner. Brentford had the better chances throughout, with Igor Thiago and Keane Lewis-Potter missing early opportunities. Fulham's best chance came through Ryan Sessegnon, who failed to capitalize on a good opening in the first half. The draw leaves Brentford level with sixth-placed Chelsea, while Fulham could potentially drop to 14th by the end of the weekend. Brentford head coach Keith Andrews reflected on the game, noting the team's evolution over the past seven months, while Fulham head coach Marco Silva expressed disappointment at not winning the game, despite creating some good chances. The result marks a fifth straight draw for Brentford, raising questions about their ability to secure European football next season.
