Magath frustrated by late Vydra leveller

Fulham boss Felix Magath has revealed that he is disappointed that his side couldn't hold on to take all three points in their clash with West Bromwich Albion.

Ashkan Dejagah fired the Cottagers ahead in the 26th minute and that looked enough to secure an important victory in Magath's first game in charge, but Matej Vydra struck four minutes from time to earn the Baggies a point.

Magath told BBC Sport: "We were so near to a victory, we are disappointed but in the whole game, 1-1 was correct. It was a fair result. We have had only a few days together. You cannot change many things.

"I crossed the fingers but that is not enough. We have to play 90 minutes and try to make no faults. We made too many faults in the second half.

"We lost the ball too early and came under pressure. If you get under pressure, one mistake will cost you a goal. We were away and I think it was not very good but a point is good."

Fulham are still bottom of the Premier League.
