Fulham ends Manchester United's unbeaten run with a 97th-minute winner

Fulham secured a much-deserved win against Manchester United, ending their unbeaten run in 2024. Alex Iwobi's 97th-minute winner sealed the victory for Fulham, after Harry Maguire's late equalizer seemed to have saved United. Calvin Bassey gave Fulham the initial lead with a powerful shot from a corner. Iwobi then scored the winning goal, latching onto Adama Traore's pass. Fulham controlled possession for most of the game, while United struggled to create opportunities. Rasmus Hojlund's absence affected United's attack, with Marcus Rashford being largely ineffective. Fulham's victory marks their second win of 2024 against Premier League opposition. The result is a blow to Manchester United's unbeaten streak and the start of Jim Ratcliffe's era as the club's owner. Alex Iwobi was named the player of the match for his influential performance. The match ended with a scoreline of Manchester United 1-2 Fulham.
