Fulham of England’s Nigerian-born winger, Ademola Lookman is still ruing his team’s inability to snatch an away win last weekend’s in the English Premier League and insists that The Cottagers should have got better than the 1-1 draw at Sheffield United on Sunday, megsportsarena.com reports.
The 22-year-old former Everton of England winger, who is on loan from RB Leipzig of Germany at Craven Cottage, fired Fulham ahead at Bramall Lane in the 77th minute but it was cancelled out by Billy Sharp from the penalty spot five minutes before the end of the encounter.
The England former youth international’s solo strike was his first EPL goal in over three years, the last being when he scored against Manchester City on his Everton debut in January 2017, but he is now hoping for more to come, even as he enthused that Fulham will get better results in days ahead.
Lookman submitted: “It’s disappointing really. I thought we should have got three points from the game, but it’s done now, so onto the next one. We all believe we can do great things this season. Obviously we’re a new group so we’re still gelling together, but that will come.
“We expect good things will come in the near future. I can score those goals. I can score all different types of goals, but it’s just disappointing that we didn’t get the three points. The gaffer wanted us to play a lot quicker, especially when we got into the opposition half, to try and penetrate a lot more,” he continued.
“That’s what we tried to do, and it worked for us. Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to get us the three points. I definitely feel like in the second half we controlled the game a lot more, created a lot more chances and should have scored more than one.”
