Can You Imagine the Name Zirkzee Gave Kobbie Mainoo?! 🚨 Joshua Zirkzee nets the winner on his debut as Manchester United edges out Fulham 1-0 at Old Trafford! 🔥 But it was Kobbie Mainoo who stole the show, dominating the midfield with 13 duels won and 90% passing accuracy! 💪

Manchester United began their Premier League campaign with a hard-fought 1-0 triumph over Fulham at Old Trafford on Friday evening. Despite encountering a resilient Fulham defense, it was Joshua Zirkzee who clinched the victory with a decisive goal in the 87th minute, making a memorable debut.

Although Zirkzee’s late goal was pivotal, Kobbie Mainoo was the standout player with an impressive display in midfield. The United academy product dominated the field, winning 13 ground and aerial duels, and completed 90% of his passes, including a perfect 100% accuracy on long balls (3/3). Mainoo further hindered Fulham’s efforts by successfully executing four take-ons and drawing four fouls.

Post-match, Mainoo expressed his excitement on Instagram with the caption, “No place like home,” and praised Zirkzee as a “hitman.” Zirkzee reciprocated the admiration, referring to Mainoo as the “General.”

This result signifies a promising start for United, reflecting a notable improvement compared to last season’s opener against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
