Podcast: History Books Bernd

3rd March 2025

Fulham have done it! No 1-0, no red cards but plenty of nerves. Manchester United are left smarting after Bernd Leno saves penalties from Lindelof and Zirkzee to see Fulham through to the next round of the FA Cup. Silva’s side ground down a very poor Man United team through 90 minutes, extra-time and finally, penalties.

George is joined by Yasmin, Elizabeth and Luke Resch, on his Fulhamish debut, to bask in the glorious sunshine that comes after beating Man United at Old Trafford. It was by no means a beautiful or entertaining game of football for the neutral but it did have Fulham fans’ heartbeats sky-rocketing. Bassey’s header put Fulham ahead in the final stages of the first-half but a moment of magic from Bruno Fernandes threatened to send Fulham packing. The second-half and extra-time were littered with Man United chances but Leno’s heroic hand of god clinched victory for the Cottagers.

In part two, they answer some of your listener questions. Is there a feeling better than this on a magnificent spring morning? Is Bernd Leno pinching Mark Schwarzer’s spot for second best all time Fulham keeper? Will Sess be seen again at right-wing?
