Iwobi, Bassey score as Fulham beat Man Utd
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on LinkedinShare on Whatsapp

Manchester United’s unbeaten run in 2024 came to a dramatic end as Fulham secured their first win at Old Trafford in 21 years.

Calvin Bassey fired Fulham ahead, rifling in at the second attempt from Andreas Pereira’s corner.

With Rasmus Hojlund watching this one from the director’s box, United looked a shadow of the team that has been in such fine form.

Omari Forson, 19, got his first Premier League start, while Alejandro Garnacho shuffled from right wing to left as Marcus Rashford went through the middle.

Harry Maguire thought he had secured an 89th-minute equaliser but it was enough to secure United a point as a marauding run from Adama Traore picked out Alex Iwobi to slot in in the 97th minute.

Nathan Salt was at Old Trafford to run the rule over Erik ten Hag’s charges.

But Iwobi had the final say deep into nine minutes of stoppage time, restoring an advantage initially given to them by Nigeria defender Calvin Bassey, who lashed home the loose ball after his header from a Fulham corner had been blocked by team-mate Timothy Castagne.
