FORLAN GAVE ATHLETICO MADRID THE EUROPA CUP

 
Diego Forlan shattered Fulham's Europa League dream with an extra-time winner as Atletico Madrid claimed a 2-1 victory over Roy Hodgson's side.
 
After rallying from the hammer blow of Forlan's first-half opener, levelling through Simon Davies, the Cottagers' hopes of marking the biggest night in their history with the biggest trophy they have ever won lingered long into the Hamburg night, almost to the point of penalties.
 
But just as he did at Liverpool in the semi-final three weeks ago, Forlan was to have the final word.
