Fulham coach Marco Silva has named ONE Man United’s players who was their nightmare yesterday.
Fulham manager Marco Silva voiced his frustration following his team’s narrow 1-0 defeat to Manchester United at Craven Cottage on January 27, 2025. Although Silva believed United were undeserving of the win, he admitted that one standout player made a significant impact and was the best performer on the field, which left him particularly disheartened.
Manchester United, led by coach Ruben Amorim, had been struggling with consistency, managing just a single victory in their last three league outings. Their performance in the first half was underwhelming, as they struggled to create clear chances. However, fortune favored them in the second half when Argentine defender Lisandro Martinez struck a long-range effort that took a deflection before finding the net in the 78th minute, ultimately proving to be the decisive moment of the match.
As the game neared its end, young substitute Toby Collyer made a crucial goal-line clearance to preserve United’s lead, while Fulham failed to convert their dominance into goals. Striker Rodrigo Muniz missed two golden opportunities to level the score, further compounding Fulham’s frustration. In stoppage time, Amad Diallo appeared to have put the result beyond doubt, but his goal was disallowed after a VAR review ruled him offside.
With this win, United climbed to 12th place in the league, narrowing the gap to just four points behind Fulham, who sit in 10th. Silva lamented his team’s inability to make the most of their control over the game and emphasized the need for continued hard work to achieve better results in the future.
