The importance of the most expensive match on the planet made both Brentford and Fulham enter the match quite cautiously.
During the first half, Fulham many times created dangerous counter-attacks that caused Brentford’s goal to wobble, but Onomah and his teammates were not destined to score.
Entering the second half, the game played by the two teams was even more certain than the first half. Both teams had no reason to play risky, causing good situations to no longer appear for the strikers.
The balanced match lasted until the end of the official 90 minutes.
Entering extra time, the outcome of the match changed dramatically.
In the 106th minute, the Brentford goalkeeper’s indiscretion created a great opportunity for Joe Bryan to kick a daring free kick, opening the score in the burst of joy of Fulham fans.
Receiving a goal, Brentford tried to increase their efforts in the second extra period, but when they could not find an equalizer, they had to receive a second bucket of cold water.
In injury time, Dalsgaard pulled one goal back for Brentford, but it was too late.
