You like them because of Dempsey the American?

Quite a feat - for those who are like "wtf?", Fulham FC (a decent English Premier League team) were playing the second leg of their round of 16 playoffs against Italian side Juventus (a traditionally very strong Italian team).

Juventus won the first leg 3-1, meaning that Fulham needed to win by 3 goals to advance (penalty shootout if it was a tie). Anyway, Juventus score an early goal, but Fulham then make an epic comeback to score 4 unanswered goals. Clint Dempsey's goal in the 82nd minute for the win was pretty sick:

Thanks for 'splaining SJay. I was going to write it all up but i was drunk and happy and figured you'd be the only one who cares around here and you would need no explanation. My mom was born and raised in London so that is how I came to support Fulham, and then when McBride, Bocanegro, and now Dempsey started playing there it was an extra bonus.

Dempsey's goal was pretty alright too.

I watched this game on tv and it was a pretty special game. Fulhams home form against some of the best in england and europe this season has been remarkable.

Well done Fulham.

Wow, maybe they should be my favorite team. No way can I get into this sport until I have a favorite team.

I have family living in Kent, but don't know who they root for.
