Fulham boss ‘disappointed’ after draw

Fulham: Slavisa Jokanovic.
Fulham boss Slavisa Jokanovic said he was disappointed his team failed to close out a victory at Ipswich on Tuesday.

Moussa Dembele’s 15th league goal of the season, midway through the second half, looked to have earned the Whites a win, only for Jonas Knudsen to equalise in injury time.

Jokanovic said: “We are a little bit disappointed because we won only one point.

“I believe my team deserved to go back to London with a clean sheet. At the end I can be satisfied with the fighting spirit and how my team tried to win this game.”

Fulham are not yet mathematically safe and Jokanovic believes that can keep the team motivated ahead of Saturday’s home game with Nottingham Forest.

He added: “It can be good for us because we cannot be relaxed. We need to try to finish this competition in style.”
