Matheus Cunha's deflected strike rescued a point for Manchester United late on to deny Fulham a first Premier League win of the season.

Cunha rescues point for Man United at Fulham

Matheus Cunha's deflected strike in the final minute secured a point for Manchester United against Fulham at Fulham's Craven Cottage, preventing the visitors from securing their first Premier League win of the season. Early in the match, Fulham's Lisandro Martinez's bizarre own goal had seemed to seal a win for the hosts, but Cunha's deflected shot from 20 yards away off Fulham's David Affengruber, and past goalkeeper Bernd Leno, gave United a much-needed point.

Despite United's efforts, they remain 12th in the league with only five points from their first five games, while Fulham are 19th with just two points. The winless start to the season for Fulham, however, could be an important stepping stone for the team, with performances from young players Josh King and Alex Iwobi demonstrating the club's potential.
