Alex Iwobi etched his name in Fulham’s history by becoming the first player since October 2003 to score a winning goal against Manchester United at Old Trafford.
Steed Malbranque was the last Fulham player to accomplish this feat. Under Marco Silva’s management, Fulham secured a 2-1 victory against the Red Devils in a thrilling match at a bustling Old Trafford.

Calvin Bassey, Iwobi’s international teammate, gave Fulham the lead five minutes after the hour mark. Despite United’s late effort, with centre-back Harry Maguire leveling the scores in the 89th minute, Iwobi emerged as the hero, scoring his fourth goal of the campaign deep into stoppage time. This goal sealed a precious away victory for Fulham.
