Lisandro Martínez deflected strike in the 78th minute gave Manchester United a 1-0 victory over Fulham in a lacklustre Premier League match on January 26, 2025. Martínez goal came from United's first shot on target. Fulham had the better chances in the first half but failed to capitalize, while Manchester United claimed their third win in four matches.
In the Premier League clash on January 26, 2025, Manchester United secured a 1-0 victory over Fulham at Craven Cottage. The match remained goalless until the 78th minute when Lisandro Martínez scored a deflected goal, which was United's first shot on target.
The strike, which hit Fulham's Sasa Lukic before looping over goalkeeper Bernd Leno, came as a harsh blow to Fulham, who had been the better side in the first half but failed to capitalize on their chances. Raul Jimenez missed a notable opportunity for Fulham in the first half.
Despite a lacklustre performance from United, who struggled to break down Fulham's defence, the win marks their third victory in the last four games. Fulham, who had been unbeaten at home since November, failed to take advantage of their superior play and were punished late in the match.
The result ends their good home form and leaves them in 10th place. United moves up to 12th in the table. The match saw late drama as Amad Diallo's stoppage-time goal was ruled out for offside by VAR.
