Americans In The UK: Dempsey Saves Fulham
On Saturday, the Cottagers struggled to get anything going against Aston Villa. They scored an own goal early on and failed to truly test the keeper much in the first half. However, Andy Johnson tallied eight minutes into the second stanza before the Villains regained the lead 20 minutes later.
Finally, Dempsey stepped up to level the score. The equalizer came in the 78th minute when the striker powered in a header following Danny Murphy’s corner kick. The goal was Dempsey’s ninth in the Premier League this season, ranking him fifth in the league. In addition, out of his nine goals, five of them were either winners or tied the game after Fulham had been trailing.
