Guglielmo Vicario moment of madness helps gift Fulham TWO-goal lead inside first six minutes of Tottenham clash as under-fire keeper is hit by huge boos after howler
Guglielmo Vicario was greeted by a chorus of boos in north London after a moment of sheer madness helped gift Fulham a two-goal lead to hand Thomas Frank’s side a huge mountain to climb.
Many Tottenham fans viewed Saturday night’s clash with Fulham as a must-win game after a poor spell of form but the urgency clearly hadn’t been translated to goalkeeper Vicario.
Already beaten by a deflected strike by Furacao Tete after four minutes, Spurs’ Italian keeper went walkabout chasing a lost cause over to his left-hand touchline and by keeping the ball in play handed Fulham a second goal.
Vicario got into all sorts of bother by the touchline, lost the ball and Harry Wilson pushed the ball into an empty net.
‘The worst possible start for Spurs. The atmosphere inside the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is restless… rumblings of discontent rolling down from the South Stand… and Fulham have the hosts where they want them…’ reported Daily Mail Sport’s Matt Barlow from the ground.
