Manchester United have been dealt a heavy blow! After losing the first game of the new year, it fell to fourth
Earlier on February 25, Beijing time in the 26th round of the Premier League, Manchester United was beaten 2-1 by Fulham in one minute, and then won five games in a row, including four in the Premier League.
Hojlund, who has been outstanding lately, misses out this game due to injury. Counting the injured Luke Shaw, the front and back four will all lose an important position. In the half, Man Dog and Fulham both scored. Fulham had a kick-off on 65 minutes and Bath slotted the ball into the back of the net in a scuffle.
Although on 89 minutes, Manchester United drew the game with a goal from central defender Harry Maguire. However, in the seventh minute, Iwobi brought down Onana with a powerful shot from the edge of the box, which led to the goal being cancelled out, leaving United unhappy to lose three points in their home country.
The defeat also gave United a string of embarrassing records. First of all, it was their first defeat in the 2024 season after seven consecutive wins in all competitions since the start of the 2024 season. Secondly, Fulham have won all competitions against Manchester United for the first time in 15 years, with Fulham winning just three of their 18 games and losing just 15.
Thanks to Villa's victory in this game, United are now just eight points away from the last four and they have scored just 0 goals. After four consecutive wins, the once-highly-hoped Champions League spot now looks even bleaker.
