The matches of the 24th round of the English Premier League have entered an even more interesting phase. In the round, Manchester United hosted Fulham at home, and the exciting clash at Old Trafford ended 3-2 in favor of the hosts.
The score was opened in the 19th minute: Casemiro put United ahead with a targeted shot. With the start of the second half, the London side increased pressure, but a 56th-minute goal from Counya further strengthened the Mancunians' grip.
It seemed like the game was over, but Fulham started a real "game comeback" in the final minutes: in the 85th minute, Gimenez scored from a penalty, and in the 90+1st minute, Kevin leveled the score, instantly filling the stadium with noise.
But "Old Trafford" nights usually don't go without surprises: Sheshko, who came on later in the 90+4th minute, scored the decisive goal, gifting "United" a dramatic victory.
Following this result, Manchester United moved up to 4th place in the league table with 41 points. Fulham remain in 8th place with 34 points.
