Sander Berge has been named Man of the Match from Fulham’s hard fought draw with Arsenal on Sunday.

Sitting at the base of our midfield, Berge was a major reason why it was such a frustrating afternoon for the Gunners, who struggled to create chances from open play.

Also named Man of the Match by Sky Sports, it was the latest in a string of continually improving performances by the big Norwegian, who has now truly established himself as a key component of this Fulham side.

“I think [MOTM] could have been given to many in our team,” Berge humbly told FFCtv. “Everyone did their job brilliantly.

“It’s a tough task, defending against such a great team. With the way they play football, it’s difficult to press them, and if you don’t press them you end up being deep, but everyone defended well.

“It was a very strong performance by each and every one.”

Berge also demonstrated his offensive capabilities, with his sublime ball over the top for Andreas Pereira leading to our only shot on target of the second half.

44.7 per cent of supporters gave Berge their vote for Man of the Match, with the dominant Issa Diop in second (16.3%) and goal scorer Raúl Jiménez third (14.2%).
