Roy Hodgson was pleased to see Fulham Football Club pick up a point on Sunday.

Just 72 hours after knocking Shakhtar Donetsk out of the UEFA Europa League in the Ukraine, the Londoners were back in Premier League action and earned a goalless draw at Sunderland.

“It's obviously a very good point given the circumstances, it was never going to be easy for us having come back so early on Friday morning from the Ukraine," said Hodgson.

"It's the eighth match in a short month and I looked at how dangerous this game could be given how good Sunderland are at home. I thought we defended solidly throughout the game.

“I am delighted that we are going to finish the month unbeaten. After the week we have had, to come to Sunderland and get a good 0-0 has crowned a fantastic month for the club."
