Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand reacted to the team's 2-0 defeat against Hull City in their opening Premier League match at the MKM Stadium. Hull City, returning to the Premier League after a nine-year absence, scored both goals in the first half.
Semi Ajayi opened the scoring in the 17th minute after a rebound from Oli McBurnie's shot, which was deflected onto the post by Senne Lammens. Nobel Mendy extended Hull City's lead in the 38th minute by heading in from a free-kick taken by Regan Slater.
Following the match, Ferdinand took to social media to express his thoughts, highlighting the difficulties of facing newly promoted teams away from home and the need for Manchester United to improve their defense against crosses. He noted that Hull City was solid defensively and denied United any space.
Manchester United had 72% possession and took 21 shots during the match.
