Where does Man Utd defeat rank among shock opening-game losses?
Pre-season optimism can be a dangerous thing, as Manchester United fans have found out the hard way.
Manchester United's 2-0 loss to newly promoted Hull City in their opening match of the 2017-18 Premier League season stands out as one of the most shocking defeats for the English football giants. Hull, who had never previously beaten United in the top flight, demonstrated their superiority from the start, winning the match convincingly.
This represents United's first loss to a newly promoted team on the opening day of a Premier League season, a fact that emphasizes the magnitude of their defeat. The loss, however, is not unique for United, as they have faced several shocking upsets in their opening games throughout the years.
