Fulham manager Marco Silva felt his first game in charge of the London club should have ended in victory after they were held to a 1-1 draw by Middlesbrough in English football’s second-tier Championship on Sunday.
Newly relegated from the Premier League, Fulham went ahead at their Craven Cottage ground through a 29th-minute goal from Harry Wilson, signed from Liverpool for £12 million . But Middlesbrough stayed in the match and they equalised through Marc Bola 13 minutes from time before substitute Marcus Tavernier missed a late chance to win the match for the visitors.
Portuguese boss Silva, an experienced campaigner in English football, having previously been in charge of Hull, Watford and Everton, insisted the physicality of the Championship was no surprise to him or his players, with Fulham tipped to head straight back to the Premier League.“We have enough players who know what playing in the Championship means. We had chances and we were dominant…We should score the second goal — but that is football.
