Fulham loanee Martial Godo put in another top performance for Wigan Athletic against Peterborough United last night.
Godo scored his third league goal of the season as The Latics recorded their second successive victory.
There’s plenty of excitement around Fulham right now when it comes to their young players.
The Fulham faithful are waiting to see Luc de Fougerolles make his home debut after a fantastic performance against Ipswich Town in the Carabao Cup.
Luke Harris has made some great cameos and fans are keeping a close eye on the Championship to see how Jay Stansfield does at Birmingham City.
He’s now working under Wayne Rooney and the information and experience he can pass on to the young forward could be invaluable.
A youngster who hasn’t been seen very often with Fulham’s first team is Martial Godo.
Signed from Margate in 2022, Godo made his Whites debut in that infamous cup defeat to Crawley Town last season.
Fulham decided to send Godo to Wigan on loan this season in League One and he got the better of Peterborough United’s defence yesterday.
It took him just seven minutes to find the back of the net as he nipped in ahead of the visitor’s goalkeeper to knock the ball into the empty goal.
Godo stars for Wigan against Peterborough
It was Godo’s sixth goal involvement in ten league games this season having laid on three assists for his teammates alongside his three goals.
He completed 86% of his passes last night, although that only equated to 12 out of his 14 efforts finding a teammate.
Godo was required to put in a defensive shift for Wigan against Peterborough too, winning three duels, making two interceptions and one tackle.
He was brought off in the 74th minute with the scores level before Callum McManaman scored the winner with eight minutes left to play.
His colleagues in the under-21s squad had an equally good evening, defeating Gillingham 1-0 in the EFL Trophy.
It’s the first time Fulham have advanced to the knockout stages of the competition thanks to Aaron Loupalo-Bi’s deft finish.
