EPL: Iwobi, Bassey star in Fulham’s draw at Brighton

Super Eagles duo of Alex Iwobi and Calvin Bassey were in action as Fulham held Brighton to a 1-1 draw in Sunday’s Premier League game.

While Iwobi was making his sixth appearance for Fulham, Bassey on the other hand was making his sixth appearance as well.

However, Evan Ferguson gave Brighton a deserved lead as the home side put in a commanding display in the opening 45 minutes at the Amex Stadium.

But, as the rain poured, Brighton lost their way in the second half and Portugal international Palhinha made them pay after possession was cheaply gifted to Fulham deep in opposition territory.

Brighton regained control after being pegged back but Fulham defended stoutly, restricting the hosts to just one good opening when substitute Ansu Fati was denied by Bernd Leno.

The Seagulls are now seventh in the table, while Fulham remain 14th.
