EPL: Manchester United Harm Fulham

Manchester United moved to 12th on the league table after they defeated Fulham by a lone goal at the Craven Cottage.

Lisandro Martinez scored the only goal of the encounter in the 78th minute as his shot from the edge of the box took a deflection off Sasa Lukic and looped over Bernd Leno in goal for the home side.

It was a lackluster performance and it seemed the match will end in a stalemate before the Argentine scored with United’s first shot on target.

After defeating Rangers on Thursday, United have now won two matches in a row.
