1-2! Ten Hag created a humiliation and gave gifts to the two major opponents, and Manchester United had no hope of fighting for the fourth

Manchester United, one of the Premier League's traditional giants, have been underwhelming for most of the season, but after entering February, the team has won four consecutive rounds and moved up to sixth in the table, with hope of qualifying for the Champions League. With the 26th round of the Premier League kicking off this weekend, Manchester United continue to host Fulham. In the last 10 meetings between the two sides, Manchester United are unbeaten with 8 wins and 2 draws, which is also the key reason why fans are optimistic about the Red Devils. In this game, Muñoz and Dalot hit the post successively, Onana made many wonderful saves, Bassey scored first, Maguire equalized in the 89th minute, and Iwobi scored in stoppage time to help Fulham take away three points.

At Old Trafford, Ten Hag stuck to a 4-2-3-1 formation, Onana continued to be the starting goalkeeper, the back four remained Diogo Dalot, Harry Maguire, Raphael Varane and Justin Lindelof, and Casemiro and rising star Maynu in midfield. Garnacho, Fernando and Omari Forson lined up as Marcus Rashford replaced the injured Hojlen in the position of a single arrow.

After the start of the game, Fulham, who were playing away, were more proactive, especially Manchester United veteran Andres Pereira. In the opening three minutes, Iwobi crossed from the left and Andres Pereira got up and fired from outside the box, but unfortunately couldn't test Onana.

In the 10th minute, Andres Pereira cut inside on the right and suddenly shot straight at the edge of the penalty area, but his teammates didn't realize it and didn't start the pick-up, missing a valuable opportunity. In the 14th minute, Fulham came close to scoring: Castagne's long pass instigated a counter-attack, Lukic struggled to head the ball, Maguire and Varane made a mistake in the combination, and Iwobi followed up with a volley that grazed the post and narrowed the post, and United escaped.

In the 33rd minute, Iwobi crossed in the penalty area, Muñoz turned around and got rid of Lindelof in style, and the powerful shot popped up on the post!

In the 39th minute, Fulham's quick counter-attack, Pereira shot from outside the box went straight to the bottom right corner of the goal, Onana responded with a world-class save and kept the ball away. Three minutes later, Garnacho cut inside on the left and fired a dangerous shot from outside the box, with Leno diving sideways to clear the danger.

After the first 45 minutes, both teams contributed a lot of good attacks, but neither team could score, and returned to the dressing room with a 0-0 scoreline. In the 48th minute, Casemiro met his opponent in the scramble and could not continue the game, so Ten Hag had to replace McTominay.

In the 57th minute, Iwobi broke the ball and advanced a counterattack, Wilson followed the cross, Lindelof stuck his position, did not give Pereira a chance to get up, and the ball slid past the goal.

In the 63rd minute, Reid crossed from the right and shot towards the goal, and Onana chased back to lift the ball off the crossbar. 1 minute later, Andres Pereira crossed from a corner, Basey volleyed on Castagne, and the follow-up shot was powerful and heavy, Onana could not do anything, and Fulham broke the deadlock, 1-0!

Manchester United, which was behind, immediately launched a crazy counterattack.

However, in the 89th minute, B Fei cut inside on the left side and was saved by Leno, Maguire hit the shot in front of the goal, VAR signaled that the goal was valid, Manchester United finally equalized, 1-1!

Fulham avenged a first-leg defeat and took three points away at Old Trafford for the first time in 21 years, with Ten Hag suffering a humiliating defeat.
