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.

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.

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:

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

A long ball from the middle was falling dangerously for Bruno Fernandes. Zubimendi came running in for the ball and fouled Bruno. 

Free kick from the edge of the box for United. 

Arsenal scores from the corner. 

Calafiori headed the ball inside the goal as Bayindir could not save the corner from Declan Rice cleanly, and Calafiori just headed the ball for the first goal. 

Manchester United 0-1 Arsenal.

Odegaard was looking to send a cross from close range on the left. However, his attempt has been blocked by De Ligt, and it goes for a corner.

Mason Mount with a through ball for Mbeumo to make a run inside the box. However, he could not go past Raya. 

Easy grab for Raya. 

Manchester United's new No. 19 has started well as he looked to apply pressure on Zubimendi first and then Raya.
