Despite putting on a lackluster display at Craven Cottage, Manchester United managed to secure all three league points thanks to a late goal by Fernandes in the 91st minute.

After deflecting a clearing from Joao Palhinha, the Portuguese midfielder tried to find Scott McTominay, who had a goal controversially disallowed in the first half.

After the ball wobbled back to Fernandes, he sliced onto his reliable right foot and sent an incredible strike into the net.

The Red Devils, who had lost their first two Carabao Cup matches against Manchester City and Newcastle United, are celebrating a massive win.

With six wins in the league thus far this season, Erik ten Hag’s club is now in sixth place with 18 points.

After the outcome, Fernandes said to TNT Sports, “It’s not the best situation.” The most crucial thing is that we achieved the three points today, which is what we had to provide.”

Man United will play again in the Champions League on Wednesday of next week, and then they will play again on November 11 against Luton Town.
