It was a burst of attacking precision that had until then been completely lacking from Fulham, who had the best chances of the first half but saw them spurned by Zamora, from a tight angle, and Clint Dempsey, who fired wide just before the break.
Mr. SCALES: If there is a Greek tragedy storyline in all this, it's that the military that he saw in the future, this highly capable, light, small military that was capable of delivering great precision from great distances, suddenly was trumped by an enemy who approached warfare in an entirely different passion.
