Ryan Sessegnon: 'Fulham showed bottle'

Ryan Sessegnon has said that Fulham "showed a lot of bottle" to overcome Derby County in the second leg of their Championship playoff semi-final on Monday night.

Fulham entered the match at Craven Cottage off the back of a 1-0 defeat at Derby in the first leg of their last-four tie.

Sessegnon levelled the encounter in the 47th minute of the second leg, however, before Denis Odoi netted a second to send the Cottagers into the Championship playoff final with a 2-0 home win.

"We showed a lot of bottle today. Credit to the lads, we pushed and pushed and should have scored in the first half. Thankfully I got the goal and it changed the game. The second put pressure on them. We believe in our style of play," Sessegnon told Sky Sports News.

Fulham will face either Aston Villa or Middlesbrough in the Championship playoff final on May 26.
