Mar 08 2026 14:10 · By onefootball.com · 48 Reads
Benjamin Lecomte has had to bide his time as Bernd Leno's understudy at Fulham .
All of the French goalkeeper's appearances for Marco Silva's side have come in cup competitions with his latest in Sunday's FA Cup fifth round clash with Southampton .
But Lecomte has made good use of his limited playing time with the Cottagers as he produced a sublime stop to deny Finn Aziz during the second half in west London.
Fulham had seen two potential openers ruled out in either half before the visitors staged a breakaway in hopes of pulling off one of the tournament's latest shocks.
Unfortunately for the Saints , the 34-year-old pulled off one of the saves of his career.
