Defensive lapses frustrate Fulham boss

Fulham boss Slavisa Jokanovic bemoaned his team’s sloppy defending after the 2-2 draw at Cardiff.

Neeskens Kebano’s second-half equaliser earned a point for the Whites and both teams created a host of chances in an open game.

“We weren’t solid enough and gave them chances,” Jokanovic said.

“In a few situations we gave them chances to be one-on-one and this is not acceptable. We have to avoid this kind of situation.”

Fair but disappointing result because we had a plan to win the game. We'll keep pushing hard to be ready for our next challenges. #FFC

A win for Fulham would have left them just three points behind sixth-placed Sheffield Wednesday, who lost at Leeds earlier in the day.

Jokanovic said: “We came to Cardiff with ambition to win the game. We didn’t do it.

“It was a fair result and we must accept it, but we must be disappointed because our ambitions were different.”
