Manchester United Draw with Fulham, Equalling Worst Premier League StartPreviousNext

Manchester United drew 1-1 with Fulham, equalling their worst Premier League start with just one win in five matches. The team conceded a deflected own goal by Lisandro Martinez and was close to a third consecutive defeat before Matheus Cunha's late equaliser. Manager Michael Carrick acknowledged the team's struggles but highlighted positive signs and defended their effort, despite criticism over their lack of energy and defensive issues. United enter the international break amid ongoing challenges and pressure on Carrick.
