Fulham Stuns Manchester United with Alex Iwobi’s Late Winner, Securing First Old Trafford Victory Since 2003

Despite their recent form, Manchester United struggled to find their rhythm against Fulham.

The visitors started brightly, with Iwobi coming close to scoring early on.

Rodrigo Muniz also posed a threat with a near-post header that forced a save from United’s goalkeeper Andre Onana.

However, the hosts had their chances too, with Alejandro Garnacho’s effort cleared off the line by Antonee Robinson.

Both teams continued to create opportunities in the second half, with Diogo Dalot and Muniz hitting the woodwork within minutes of each other.

However, it was Fulham who eventually capitalized on their dominance from set pieces, as Bassey fired home a powerful shot from a corner.

Manchester United responded by increasing their attacking intensity, with Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford testing Fulham’s goalkeeper Bernd Leno.

But as United pushed forward, Fulham found more space on the counter-attack.

Harry Wilson came close to doubling Fulham’s lead, but his bending strike narrowly missed the target.

Just when it seemed that Manchester United had salvaged a late equalizer, Fulham broke the hearts of the home crowd.

Iwobi, following a pass from Adama Traore, cut inside and unleashed a powerful shot to secure the victory for Fulham.

The defeat was a shock for Manchester United, who had been aiming for their fifth consecutive Premier League win.

The result highlighted the need for improvement and raised questions about the team’s performance.

Fulham, on the other hand, displayed resilience and clinical finishing to secure a memorable victory at Old Trafford.
