Man United 1-0 Fulham: Dream debut for Zirkzee as Red Devils avoid frustration
Manchester United got off to winning ways with a 1-0 win against Fulham as the Premier League returned on Friday night.
After a goalless first half with several chances, the second 45 needed a moment to echo the game into life a bit more. It took 87 minutes for a goal to ripple the net but, for Joshua Zirkzee, it was a debut to remember, as his effort went past Bernd Leno in goal for Fulham.
Fulham did make a good name for themselves throughout the game as they challenged United right to the end, but it was their keeper who kept them in it with several saves made.
Obviously, Man United go top and Fulham are bottom but it's gameweek one. Both sides will be looking to build on this opening result.
