Joshua Zirkzee made an immediate impact off the bench to score the winning goal against Fulham on opening night at Old Trafford.
Manchester United began the season with a 1-0 win over Fulham at Old Trafford thanks to a debut goal from summer signing Joshua Zirkzee.
Manchester United start season on winning note
Despite this being only the first game of the season, this was a huge win for Erik ten Hag and Manchester United.
This was a cagey affair, with both teams feeling each other out but the hosts always showed more intent, with Garnacho and Bruno Fernandes creating plenty of problems.
The first half flew by but you got the sense Ten Hag's men would be the likelier scorers if a goal did arrive.
On the hour mark, Ten Hag introduced new boy Joshua Zirkzee, and he had a dream impact, firing home the winner from a Garnacho cross on 87 minutes.
United head to the Amex to play Brighton next but they will be satisfied with the night's work.
