Fulham extended its unbeaten run in the Premier League on Saturday, and it was Clint Dempsey that came through with the Cottagers' lone goal in a 1-1 draw against West Ham United.

Dempsey scored his second goal of the season in the first half of the match, beating goalkeeper Robert Green with a volley 112 days after scoring on him in embarrassing fashion at the World Cup.

West Ham would find its equalizer in the second half, but the draw kept Fulham without a loss through seven games this season (one win, six draws). 

Dempsey went the distance in the match, and teammate Eddie Johnson received his first start of the season and played 77 minutes.

Here's the goal:

What do you think of Dempsey's goal? Do you see Green calling in sick next time he has to face Dempsey? More impressed by Johnson's 77-minute performance?
