London –
Ademola Lookman failed to save Fulham from defeat. His harvest penalty failed at the last minute, which made him even teased.
Fulham travel to London Stadium, Saturday (7/11/2020) to fight West Ham United in week 8 Premier League. The Cottagers were hit in the final minutes of the match.
After 90 minutes of a 0-0 draw, Fulham conceded in the 90 + 1 minute. Toma Soucek broke the net.
Towards the match ending in the 90 + 7 minute, Fulham received a penalty. Said Benrahma violated Tom Cairney, and was declared a penalty after being checked by VAR. Lookman then went on to become the executor.
In the 98th minute, Lookman kicked his penalty. Harvest style he showed, which apparently did not go according to plan.
Intending to deceive Lukasz Fabianski, Lookman instead kicks his harvest penalty weakly. As a result, the ball was easily caught by the West Ham goalkeeper. Fulham still lost 0-1 to The Hammers.
On social media, Lookman’s missed penalty became the subject of banter. There were also many Fulham fans who were upset that the missed penalty made defeat inevitable.
Coach Scott Parker was originally annoyed with the Lookman penalty. However, he still defended the player’s decision
“I think at this moment it is very surprising. My emotions are disappointment, a little anger. I will not escape from the penalty failure. I am angry and he too,” said Parker was quoted by the Daily Mail.
“You can’t miss a penalty like that. If you take it like that you have to score a goal. He knows it. When you are young, you have to learn quickly. The boy made mistakes, that’s obvious.”
“He was disappointed, and rightly so. Everyone can miss a penalty, of course – but in a certain way,” he said.
The defeat made Fulham still sink in the 17th place in the Premier League standings with only 4 points. While West Ham rose to 11th with 11 points.
