Quickfire Zamora leads Fulham into semi-finals


Bobby Zamora bolstered his hopes of an England World Cup call when he fired Fulham into the Europa League semi-finals on Thursday.
Zamora scored after just 19 seconds to give the English Premier League side a 1-0 win over German champions Wolfsburg, and a last-four clash with another German side Hamburg, claiming the tie 3-1 on aggregate.
Hamburg, who will also host the final, saw off Standard Liege in their quarter-final.
Zamora's goal was out of the top drawer when he neatly turned inside Jan Simunek to find the target with a sweet left-foot drive.
In the second half, Wolfsburg's Brazilian striker Grafite had a shot blocked on the line.
