Iwobi, once labeled the villain of the Super Eagles, is now showcasing his talent for Fulham in Premier League.
Fulham’s previous Premier League victory at Old Trafford occurred 21 years ago under Chris Coleman’s management. Despite their recent struggles, with just one win in their last eight games and the absence of the suspended Joao Palhinha, Fulham seemed unlikely to break that streak.
Meanwhile, Manchester United, buoyed by their unbeaten record and five consecutive victories in 2024, appeared confident of continuing their impressive form.
Fellow teammates and Super Eagles defender Calvin Bassey had put Fulham a goal up before Manchester United defender equalised.
Alex Iwobi big moment
Alex Iwobi received a pass from Adama Traore, skillfully maneuvered past two defenders, cleverly deceived the goalkeeper, and calmly slotted the ball into the bottom left corner, thus ending Fulham’s 21-year winless streak at Old Trafford.
It’s the latest goal Manchester United have conceded at Old Trafford since 2006-07 season according to Opta stats
The winner against United makes it 4 goals and 1 assist in 20 Premier League games for the super eagles star.
