Southampton's first Premier League match since manager Russell Martin's exit saw them hold Fulham to a 0-0 draw at Craven Cottage. The Saints put on a strong defensive show to keep their opponents out on Sunday, despite the hosts controlling significant portions of the game while Ivan Juric, the new manager, watched from the seats.
Harry Wilson and Alex Iwobi's unsuccessful attempts to try their luck in the first half limited the Cottagers to speculative tries. However, they came closest in the 67th minute when Aaron Ramsdale, the Southampton custodian who had returned, stopped Wilson's close-range attempt. The visitors managed to hold on for their first point since a 1-1 draw with Brighton last month, despite Adama Traore, who came off the bench in the second half, coming within inches of a breakthrough in the final minutes.
