Fulham get yet another chance to actually win a cup match. Now that would be different.
KO 19:45 GMT / 2:45 ET - no U.S. TV
No Clint Dempsey yet as he's still in the U.S. (and may not have been eligible anyway, since he wasn't eligible for the original match).

He wasn't an option for this game because he wasn't on the roster for the first matchup.

fulham 4-3 leicester
what a turn around by fulham, they were down 3-1 in the first and montella comes on and scores twice with routledge scoring in the 90th. fulham dominated the second half

The turn around is great, and typifies their attitude this season.
...being down 1-3 to Leicester isn't on the great side.

Call me a pessimistic Philadelphian... but I don't see this as a 4-3 win. I see this as "shit, we were down 1-3 to LEICESTER?".

Yea, as much as I like the 'Never say die' attitude of the Whites so far this year, the number of Fulham faithful is likely to drop if they keep this up due to a rise in heart attacks among fans. 1-3 is no way to go. But hey, at least we're not Newcastle. (1-5 loss to Birmingham)

I watched that Birmingham/Newcastle game, I've never seen a team look that flat in my life. Ugh.

How was Montella able to play then?

Montella was available for the first Leicester match, he came on as a sub.

Dude, this is our first win in 7 games. I'll take a win by any score at this point.
