In a thrilling Premier League encounter at Craven Cottage, Manchester United managed to secure a point against Fulham, ending the match in a 1-1 draw. The game saw Fulham take the lead in the 63rd minute through an unfortunate own goal by Manchester United's Lisandro Martínez. However, in a dramatic finish, Matheus Cunha equalized for the visitors with just a minute left on the clock, ensuring that United left with a point.
The match began with both teams showing determination but failing to convert their chances into goals during the first half, which ended 0-0.

The Argentinian defender inadvertently redirected the ball into his own net, giving Fulham a 1-0 lead.

After the match, Manchester United manager Michael Carrick expressed his satisfaction with the team's performance, stating that they did enough to win the game despite the own goal. He acknowledged the challenges they have faced recently but emphasized the importance of maintaining belief and continuing to push for better results.
Fulham's manager, Alvaro Arbeloa, was understandably disappointed, noting that his team was close to securing their first win of the season. He praised his players for their efforts and highlighted the need for continued improvement as they look to build on their performances.
With this draw, Manchester United will hope to build momentum as they prepare for their next matches, while Fulham will seek to convert their promising performances into victories when the Premier League resumes after the international break.
