🚨 Cunha spares Man Utd blushes in spirited draw at Fulham | OneFootball

What's to come from the Red Devils after the lengthy international break? Fans will certainly be looking for a marked improvement from Michael Carrick's men.

FULL TIME: FULHAM 1-1 MANCHESTER UNITED

The Red Devils have their blushes spared late on thanks to a Matheus Cunha equaliser to cancel out Lisandro Martínez's own goal.

A spirited outing from both sides ends all square at one-all.

GOAL!!! FULHAM 1-1 MANCHESTER UNITED

Has Cunha just rescued a point!?!

The Brazilian bags the equaliser in the 89th minute after his low drive takes a massive deflection to beat Leno!

We're into the final 10 minutes plus stoppage, with a massive three points for Fulham in the balance.

Can Man Utd claw their way back here?

Man of the Match voting could be easy for this one if the scoreline holds.

GOAL!! FULHAM 1-0 MANCHESTER UNITED

We have lift off at Craven Cottage.

It's an own goal by Lisandro Martínez, a man who was brilliantly denied a long-range strike in the first half by Bernd Leno, but the Cottagers won't care.

Calvin Bassey did well to regain possession before unleashing a shot at Lemmens, with the rebound spectacularly deflecting off the Argentine.

Still goalless, shockingly.

SECOND-HALF

Fulham gets the second half underway.

Heading into the second half, is Alex Iwobi the man to unlock the Manchester United defence? 

He's been excellent throughout for Fulham this afternoon, as a player who has become an unsung hero in the capital.

HALF-TIME

It's all square at Craven Cottage in what has been a highly entertaining affair in the capital.

Surely this won't remain goalless?

WHAT A SAVE!

King is denied again, but this time, it's a brilliant kick-save by Lemmens to redirect a well-hit drive destined for the far corner.

CHANCE!

Fulham are coming alive here!

Oscar Bobb expertly receives and turns in the box before looking to tuck his effort into the bottom corner, but he can't strike it cleanly and can only see it dribble wide of the near post.

CHANCE!

Nearly at the other end now, it's Josh King who tests Lemmens at the near post, but the Belgian does well to comfortably parry the half-volley away.

OFF THE POST!

Fulham ride their luck as he hit the 25th-minute, with Matheus Cunha doing well to charge into the box before laying off for Bruno Fernandes, who watches his first-time hit strike Leno's far post and bounce clear.

Are we nearing an opener at Craven Cottage?

The second corner in its wake comes to nothing, however.

CHANCE!

Manchester United are purring now, with Bernd Leno coming up big to deny Lisandro Martínez's lovely curling effort in the wake of the Red Devils' first corner of the afternoon.

CHANCE!

And we're underway at Craven Cottage, as Fulham and Manchester United lock horns for Sunday's final Premier League fixture.

For some final reading before kick-off, if you're in the Man Utd camp, here's Carrick's brief on why Benjamin Šešo is not in attendance.

Coming up in 20 minutes, Michael Carrick's Manchester United take on bottom-dwellers Fulham in the capital, as the Red Devils look to climb into the top half of the table.

A brilliant day at the office for Brian Brobbey despite Sunderland coming out on the losing end of a goal fest, but his stock continues to rise after another strong performance. 

CITY WIN AN ABSOLUTE GOAL FEAST

The final whistle blows at the Etihad after an incredible match with EIGHT goals scored and no shortage of entertainment. It surely has to go down as the Premier League's best game of the season so far.

STALEMATE AT ELLAND ROAD

Mitchell's disallowed goal aside, it was a contest low on quality between Leeds and Crystal Palace as both sides will settle for a point.

IRAOLA WINS ON BOURNEMOUTH RETURN

It wasn't a classic, but Liverpool did enough to hold on to extend their unbeaten start to the season, and give Andoni Iraola a perfect return to his former club.

The official explanation for Haaland's disallowed goal being overturned

CITY GO FURTHER AHEAD!

Haaland appeared to have put City further in the lead but it was flagged offside. However VAR stepped in and confirmed the Norwegian's goal will stand, meaning he has now scored against every Premier League team he has faced - 25 in total

SUNDERLAND NEARLY EQUALISE

It was nearly 4-4 at the Etihad after Donnarumma makes a hash of a high ball, leaving Dias to recover but almost puts the ball in his own net before clearing on the line

LIVERPOOL ALMOST PUNISHED

Iraola's side get a bit sloppy as Mac Allister gives the ball away, allowing Evanilson to take aim at goal but Alisson is equal to it

SUNDERLAND SCORE AGAIN!

Talk about famous last words! Régis Le Bris' side have reduced the deficit through Brobbey racking up a hat-trick. How many more goals are we going to see in this one?

CITY EXTEND THEIR LEAD!

There's no danger of the hosts being caught cold in this second half as Semenyo bags a brace

The line-ups for our final game of the day at Craven Cottage have just dropped

LIVERPOOL BREAK THE DEADLOCK!

It's against the run of play but the visitors take the lead! Isak nets his fourth goal of the campaign with a clinical strike after Wirtz helps on Gakpo's cross

GOAL DISALLOWED AT ELLAND ROAD

Palace thought they had opened the scoring through Mitchell but VAR is quick to intervene and overturns the opener for offside

ANOTHER CHANCE FOR BOURNEMOUTH

A similar situation to their first-half chance for Marco Rose's side as Christie is teed up at the near post but he sends it wide

SECOND HALF UNDERWAY

Off we go again

Is this the game of the season so far?

HALF TIME

Bournemouth 0-0 LIverpool

Man City 3-2 Sunderland

Leeds 0-0 Crystal Palace

A HUGE MISS BY HAALAND

City should be 4-2 up as Ndiaye tees up Haaland but the striker drags his effort horribly wide

CITY HAVE THE LEAD ONCE MORE!

What a game this is turning out to be! Semenyo is the latest to put Enzo Maresca's men back ahead.

As achievements go, it's not bad company to be in for a Sunderland marksman

LIVERPOOL FINALLY TEST THE HOSTS

It's been a languid half at the Vitality Stadium for Andoni Iraola's side but they have finally tested Petrović with Barcola letting fly from distance

SUNDERLAND EQUALISE AGAIN!

Wow! Just as it was for the opener, the visitors have levelled again with Brobbey on the score sheet once more

CITY RETAKE THE LEAD!

It's all going on at the Etihad, Cherki puts the hosts back ahead with a sweeping finish inside the box

FIRST OPENING AT ELLAND ROAD

Tanaka should do a lot better for Leeds as he meets a long throw first-time but blazes it oft target

BOURNEMOUTH GO CLOSE

Down on the South Coast, Tavernier plays in Evanilson for a near-post flick but Alisson managed to just about keep it out

SUNDERLAND STRIKE BACK!

The Black Cats are already back level as Brobbey slips the ball past Donnarumma

MAN CITY BREAK THE DEADLOCK!

We didn't have to wait long for the day's first goal and it comes courtesy of Enzo

UNDERWAY AT THE VITALITY, ETIHAD AND ELLAND ROAD

We're officially off and running in the afternoon's first matches

Team news has landed in the day's first three games and here's how the respective sides are lining up:

Bournemouth v Liverpool

Manchester City v Sunderland

Leeds v Crystal Palace

The headline of the day's first three games is Andoni Iraola's return to Bournemouth, where his Liverpool side have struggled over recent seasons. Will the Basque be able to break the chain in his first visit back to the South Coast?
