Manchester United's Cunha Saves Draw Against Fulham
In a Premier League match at Craven Cottage, Manchester United managed to draw 1-1 against Fulham, avoiding a third consecutive defeat. Lisandro Martinez scored an own goal, putting Fulham ahead, but Matheus Cunha equalized with a deflected strike in the 89th minute.
The deflection off Fulham's David Affengruber wrongfooted goalkeeper Bernd Leno, who had previously made several crucial saves. Despite a slow start to the second half, United pushed for a leveler, with Bruno Fernandes hitting the woodwork and Leno denying Bryan Mbeumo's curling effort.
The result leaves Manchester United in 12th place with five points from five games, while Fulham remains in 19th with two points. The match was significant for Fulham, as they sought their first league win under new manager Alvaro Arbeloa and their first home win against United since 2009.
