In the recently concluded Premier League season, promoted Fulham once again showed their strength. In the early hours of Wednesday morning (31st), they beat Bradenton 2-1 at home, with 27-year-old Seville international, striker Alexandre Mizouwick, scoring again, making it five goals in five games in the Premier League this season, and closing in on Manchester City's Ayn Rand, who already has six goals to his name.
The first half of the match was a scoreless affair until the second half when Alexandre Mizunochi scored with an easy shot from inside the penalty area to give Fulham the lead just three minutes into the match. Seven minutes later, a quick counter-attack by Fulham led to an own goal by Brighton defender Levis Dunk, further increasing the lead.
Although Brighton then scored from a penalty kick by Alex McAleese to bring the score to 1-2 at one stage, they were ultimately unable to salvage the defeat and break their unbeaten run in the league this season.
Currently, the Fulham team has 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in 5 league matches. The only defeat was suffered against top-of-the-table Arsenal, but the team also drew with Liverpool, which is an eye-opening performance.
Aleksandar Mizunovic played two seasons in the Premier League for Fulham, scoring a total of 14 goals. In his next two and a half seasons in the Championship, he scored 81 goals, including 43 last season, and has been nicknamed the "Championship marksman", but it is widely believed that he has struggled to make it at the higher level of the Premier League.
However, Mizunochi has proven himself with his goals this season, and as long as he can maintain this form, he may even be able to hit the Premier League's top scorer's throne.
