Leno punches away an attempt and it is a vital corner for United.

From the corner, Andersen had the whole goal to aim at. But, he could not make the correct connection. 

Smith Rowe's attempt from the edge of the box is deflected away for a corner by De Ligt.

5 minutes have been added.

Harry Maguire is the only defender in the world who comes as a sub late in the game to score!

United!#FULMUN

— Koushik Biswas (@kbofficial25) August 24, 2025

This is what he does. Maguire leapt in the air and got the connection from the corner. But, it missed the target just by inches. 

Yoro and Shaw are replaced by Maguire and Heaven. 

Yoro blocks an attempt from Jimenez again. The combination of Jimenez and Smith Rowe has been working very well for Fulham.

With Jimenez, Smith Rowe and Tete in action, Fulham are roaming in and around the United box for last few minutes.

The substitute Smith Rowe does the job with his first touch of the match. 

Iwobi with the cross and Jimenez could not get a touch to it but Smith Rowe was able to get a toe to it. 

Curial goal for Fulham.

Fulham 1-1 Manchester United.

Jimenez and Smith Rowe replaced Munoz and King.

Just before the substitution, from the corner, Iwobi had the chance with a volley. However, his attempt went over the goal.

Ugarte replaces Mount. 

Fulham have the record for making comebacks in the Premier League. They have looked well after conceding the goal. 

This time, Josh King's cross was deflected away for a corner by Bruno.

Great recovery challenge from Leni Yoro as he wins the ball back from Josh King. King was nearly one-on-one if he was able to get another chance. 

Casemiro and Amad are out. Dalot and Sesko are in. 

Good start from Fulham. De Ligt has made a block a few minutes ago and Luke Shaw now blocks a cross from the right. 

Altay Bayindir was the only Manchester United player to create a big chance in the first half vs. Fulham.

No changes from either team.

Both teams had their chances. United had the best chance with Cunha hitting the post and Bruno Fernandes missing the penalty. 

Changes in the second half? Let's see. We will see you after the break.

Most penalties missed in the Premier League since Bruno Fernandes made his debut in the competition:

◎ 5 - Mohamed Salah
◎ 5 - Aleksandar Mitrovic
◉ 5 - Bruno Fernandes

— Squawka Live (@Squawka_Live) August 24, 2025

Another huge chance for Fulham from a corner. However, after a mixup, De Ligt was there in the middle to block an on-target shot from the middle.

2 minutes added as injury time.

Bruno Fernandes misses his first penalty in the Premier League since Dec. 6, 2023 😳 pic.twitter.com/qY3tntXpSx

Muniz at the far post had the whole goal to aim at with his header from the corner. However, he missed the target.

After making a good run on the left and attempting a cross close to the byline, Iwobi crashed into the electronic board. 

Yellow card to Casemiro for a dive. 

Ohh, we have not seen this before. Bruno balloons that ball, and it is a huge miss from the Manchester United captain. 

The referee has decided to give a penalty. The fans and Fulham boss do not like it. But it looked like a penalty. 

Bassey had held and swung Mount around inside the box during the corner a minute ago.

A VAR check is going to check.

Mount with a clever pass inside his legs found Bruno Fernandes. However, Bruno's cross was blocked by Bassey. 

Mount from the middle looks for Mbeumo but could not do it perfectly as he lost the ball and posession. 

Important block from Yoro as Fulham was looking to attack the box via a cross from the left.

This is the third time United have looked to go for a direct pass inside the box from the middle.

This time, Casemiro looks for Amad on the right. However, it was a bit long.

This is their third corner in last three minutes. Good spell for the home side. 

From the corner, Iwobi smashed a volley, which was on target. 

Save from Bayındır to deny him.

Brilliant save from Leno. Long ball from Bayındır and Cunha, after a great recieve, went for a volley. Leno was up to the task, though.

Bayındır makes a good save as Josh King had the chance to flick the ball over the goalkeeper. 

Bruno Fernandes' shot from outside the box bounced in front of Leno. The goalkeeper was able to push the ball away. 

Good sliding tackle from Sessegnon on Amad. It goes for a goal kick.

Calvin Bassey is down after a tussle with Mbeumo. He had to leave the field and come back again as it was a head injury.

Dorgu made a great run on the left and then smashed the ball on the side net. However, he was offside.

Estevao received a through ball from the middle and nearly went one-on-one against the goalkeeper. 

However, he could not finish the job as he tried to delay his shot. 

Huge chance for West Ham United as Wilson had the chance to shoot but decided to pass it on the right, and Caicedo then made the clearance. 

Kyle Walker-Peters replaces Tomás Soucek.

Reece James replaces Malo Gusto. Jorrel Hato replaces Marc Cucurella. Wesley Fofana replaces Trevoh Chalobah.

Save from Sanchez as Souček's volley from the edge of the box was on target. 

Bowen did well to lob it from the right for Wilson to get high up and meet it with a header.

But, Wilson was not on target with his header. 

Andrey Santos replaces Delap.

Again from the corner, the ball was not cleared well, and Chalobah found the net with a cross-footed shot.

Looks like Caicedo will play a bit deep tonight, and he is following Bowen all over the place.

In case you have missed it, Cole Palmer has a niggle and was injured during the pre-match warmups. He will have to stay on the sidelines tonight.

It was a good game overall. Arsenal, just like last season, was great defensively. United looked good as well, but they could not find the net. 

A mistake from Bayindir helped Arsenal get the goal, and that was the game for them. 

Thank you for watching. We will see you next time. Good night. 

Last season's runners-up Arsenal start with a win as United's tough time continued. 

It was Calafiori's goal from the corner that was enough for them to seal the win. 

United did well, especially Cunha and Mbeumo. Dorgu came close to scoring when he hit the post in the first half.

United appeal for another penalty as Maguire fell down inside the box. No penalty givem 

Yellow card for Lewis-Skelly as he fouled Mbeumo.

Saka went for a powerful shot from close range. But De Ligt was there to block it. 

6 minutes added to the final time. 

United appeals for a penalty as Saliba brought down Ugarte inside the box. 

Yorro to Sesko, and Sesko's back heel had given Ugarte to go for the goal. However, he was not on target. 

Yellow card for Gabriel for dissent and time wasting.

Yellow card for Dorgu for a foul on Timber. 

In: Merino

Out: Rice

Declan Rice with a free-kick from the edge of the box hits the side net after a deflection. He will not take the corner though as he has been subbed off. 

In: Maguire

Out: Luke Shaw

Good feet from Amad, but his shot did not have enough power to beat Raya. 

What a save from Raya!

Lovely from Cunha, who made a good run and played it out wide to Dorgu on the left. Dorgu's cross found Mbeumo inside the box, who jumped in the air to head the ball.

The ball dropped in front of Raya and was going into the goal.

However, Raya dived full streched to his left to make the save. 

In: Timber, Lewis-Skelly

Out: Calafiori, White

Ben White is down, injured and getting medical attention. Cunha believes he is wasting time. 

Brilliant ball from Cunha, and he found Mbeumo with a perfect pass. Mbeumo just could not get his shot away and was blocked by Gabriel.

In: Madueke, Havertz

Out: Martinelli, Gyokeres

Rice, who has been a bit quiet today, takes a chance with a long-range shot. But, he missed the target. 

Unlike his counterpart, Raya was able to punch away the incoming delivery from Bruno Fernandes from a free-kick near the left corner. 

In: Diallo

Out: Dalot

The head coach of the England men's football team is here to watch the proceedings. 

After a long pass, Gyokeres on the left had the chance to make a cutback and go for the goal. However, he could not control the ball and lost it against De Ligt. 

Luke Shaw found Mount with a cutback, and Mount's left-footed volley, which was on target, was blocked by Gabriel. 

No changes from either team.

Arsenal head into the tunnel with a 1-0 lead. It was an extremely open first half. 

Calafiori scored from a corner. Dorgu hit the post. Cunha and Mbeumo looked good so far for United. 

Lots of action to come in the second half. 

Stay tuned. 

1 minute has been added to the first 45 minutes. 

On his Premier League debut, the big signing of the season has not shone so far for Arsenal. He has lacked control and accuracy. 

Weak cross from Dorgu from the left. The cross was defended well by White. 

First yellow card of the day. Calafiori gets the yellow card for holding down Mbeumo.

Cunha has been a threat to Arsenal in the last few minutes. He has been sharp, quick and making moves.

His attempted cross from the left, close range, was deflected away by Raya. No United player was there to take the advantage though. 

Great run from Cunha as United looked to attack with a counterattack. But Cunha could not finish well as he shot directly at Raya, timidly. 

Martinelli went for a bicycle kick inside the box but could not connect the shot. 

Great start from the youngster. On the left, he made a good run, made a cut to his right and then went for a powerful shot. He hit the far post, missing the goal by an inch. 

Martinelli's weak right footed shot from close range was grabbed easily by Bayindir.

Casemiro won the ball back in their half and then sent a good long ball for Mbeumo. Mbeumo's shot was deflected for a corner by Gabriel. 

David Raya made a huge mistake in the goal, and as Cunha went for the goal, Raya pushed him to win the ball back.

However, the referee did not feel it was good enough for a penalty.

Poor defending here from the visitors. Hugo Ekitike made a quick turn at the edge of the box on the left and found Cody. 

The Dutch striker was then allowed to make an entry deep inside the box and go for a shot with his right-footed from 16-yards.

 Tavernier found a juicy ball inside the box following a cut-back from the right. He hit the ball straight to Alisson. He should be disappointed with that. 

Mac Allister made a good run into the box. However, the Argentine's side-footed pass for Firmpong could not find the winger as he ran ahead of the ball. 

Finally, the corner was take,n and it was Virgil van Dijk, who jumped in the air to get a head to it. However, it went straight to Petrovic. 

We have a break at the moment, with the referee having a word with the match officials and players. 

Ekitike had the chance to riddle the ball into the goal from an airy ball outside the box by Writz. But Diakite was there to deflect it for a corner to Liverpool FC.

Although Liverpool are enjoying more possession, the visitors have won the physical battle so far, with more bodies, winning tackles and one-on-one situations.

Semenyo, this time, manhandled Writz to win the ball back for Bournemouth. 

In the 20th minute of the match, fans show Diogo Jota's jersey and clap his name to give him a resounding tribute. 

After the first mistake, Konate now fails to clear the ball away and hands it to opponents. However, Evanilson, who has handed the ball over by Konate, was found offside.

Yellow card for David Brooks.

Dembele with a whipping, curling cross from the right, and Ramos was right in the middle to make everything level.

Chevalier would be disappointed with his, but Romero wins the space and header to extend the lead. 

From a free-kick again, Romero was unmarked and had a free header at the far post. Romero's header bounced on the ground first, which made it difficult for Chevalier to make the save. But he should have done better there.

PSG 0-2 TOT.

Richarlison's powerful on-target shot was saved by Chevalier. He has been the best PSG player so far.

The second half starts with no changes to both teams.

It is Mickey van de Ven's goal that gave Spurs the lead. They were surely the better team with PSG looking a bit hot and clod throughout the entire 45 minutes.

1 minute has been added as the injury time.

Although it was flagged as an offside, Spurs were inches away from extending the lead with the ball hitting the post.

Spurs take the lead. 

Micky van de Ven scores the goal for the Europa League champions. His first-ever goal in European football. 

A long ball from the set piece, Spurs won the header, and Chevalier saved Palhinha's header. But, it was not good enough as the ball deflected from the crossbar and fell right for van de Ven to score from close range with a side-footed finish.

PSG 0-1 Tottenham

Hakimi's shot from the right of the box is blocked by Danso.

Marquinhos blocks a hard shot from Kudus.

The Paris newcomer tips the shot from distance over the crossbar! Richarlison starts the move by winning possession, turning sharply and sending Mohammed Kudus away beyond the halfway line, the winger returning the pass to the forward in the right channel. 

The No9 shifts to his right and fires in a fierce right-footed effort, taking a slight deflection before Lucas Chevalier uses his right palm to divert the ball behind. Tottenham's coaching staff show their appreciation.

Kvaratskhelia made a quick turn inside the box before attempting a right-footed shot. However, he could not hold his balance and missed his shot 

In a long throw from Danso, Spurs had the chance to score early. However, the PSG defence was cautious to negate that.

Pedro Porro takes his chance with a shot from outside the box. It goes away from the goal.

The players are out for the anthem.
