Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno has taken to social media to celebrate a ‘special’ 3-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday.
Fulham bounced back in style after losing 2-1 away at Wolverhampton Wanderers last week.
Tottenham became the latest victims of Marco Silva’s side after recent wins over both Manchester United and Brighton and Hove Albion.
Rodrigo Muniz’s stunning run continued with the opener before Sasa Lukic flicked home the second.
Muniz added number three, handing Fulham a thumping victory and another hugely impressive win over a team challenging for Europe.
Bernd Leno on Fulham win
Fulham players will have loved taking another scalp here and we can imagine that goalkeeper Bernd Leno enjoyed it a lot.
The German joined Fulham from Arsenal, meaning he spent many years counting Tottenham as his biggest enemy.
Leno will have loved claiming another win over Spurs on Saturday and took to social media to post a message.
‘Another special night at the Cottage’ said Leno, celebrating three points and a clean sheet.
Leno’s post was flooded with comments from Arsenal supporters who thanked the Fulham stopper for beating Tottenham.
‘Once a gooner, always a gooner’ was the sentiment throughout and one Arsenal goalkeeper – James Hillson – also sent a message of support to the Fulham ace.
That win was for Fulham though, not Arsenal, and Leno will be looking to push on for a top-half finish.
When you look at some of the sides Fulham have been beating in recent weeks, why can’t Silva and co finish above Chelsea, Newcastle and Wolves?
Leno will be vital to any hopes of sneaking into the top 10 and
Fulham are ticking right now, from goalkeeper Leno all the way up to surprise sensation Muniz and Saturday’s display just proved once again that nobody will fancy a trip to the Cottage any time soon.
