Marco Silva admitted he was disappointed with the result, as the team failed to create enough attacking opportunities.

Marco Silva was disappointed with Fulham's 0-0 draw away to Brentford. Despite a decent performance throughout the 90 minutes, the team failed to create enough threatening scoring opportunities.

After the match, Marco Silva said: "This is obviously not the result we wanted. We came here with the goal of winning as always, and we played better in the first half. Compared to the last game against Liverpool, we made three changes to the midfield, and the first half worked well. We controlled the tempo of the game very well."

The manager believes the team dominated the first half but gradually lost control of the game in the second half. Marco Silva continued, "There weren't many clear-cut chances in the first half, but Seth did have a good opportunity to score, but unfortunately he couldn't capitalize on a fluid attack. Brentford had one set-piece threat, but otherwise didn't create many chances."

“I think our performance dipped in the last 30 minutes, and we gradually lost control of the game. We were outmatched in physical duels in the second half, which is why they became more dominant and controlled the game better.”

Neither side had many chances in the match, but the most crucial moment came from Bernd Leno, who made a brilliant save from close range to deny Brentford a last-minute winning opportunity.

Marco Silva added: "They missed a golden opportunity, with Bernd Leno making a brilliant save at the crucial moment. However, the chance actually stemmed from a mistake we made when we shouldn't have conceded the goal."
