The game between Portsmouth and Fulham take place yesterday, August 15, 2009. More than 17, 000 viewers watched this event live at the Fratton Park.
Fulham’s forward Bobby Zamora fired the field as early as 13 minutes in the game. Actually, Fulham striker/winger Clinton Drew “Clint” Dempsey was the one going to take a shot but unexpectedly, the shot deflected in off Bobby Zamora. Portsmouth goalkeeper, David Benjamin James, was given no chance to stop the ball.
Portsmouth had a lot of chances to score in that match against Fulham but Fulham’s Australian goalkeeper, Mark Schwarzer, is just tough enough to stop the ball from reaching the goal. Portsmouth was scoreless and like any other teams like Wolverhampton, Blackburn, Bolton, Aston Villa, and Everton, who held their first 2009-2010 Premier League at their own stadium. They all failed to use their advantage to win in their first game.
