Fulham striker Zamora facing make-or-break fitness test

Fulham boss Roy Hodgson today is make-or-break for Bobby Zamora as he battles to be fit for Wednesday's Europa League final against Atletico Madrid.

Hodgson is keeping his fingers cross Zamora can play some part against Atletico.

"Bobby is also making progress and tomorrow will be quite a crucial day to see if he is fit enough to train, or whether he needs more time," he said.

"Of course, though, the more time he needs, the more difficult it makes my team selection because he has not trained or played since coming off against Hamburg.

"Time is working on his behalf, so if Bobby was lucky enough to be involved for England, then by the time that group get together after the FA Cup final, it would not prevent him from taking part in that."
