Lisandro Martinez snatches win for Manchester United at Fulham

By Reuben Rosso-Powell, PA

Lisandro Martinez’s deflected 78th-minute strike earned Manchester United a hard-fought and much-needed victory at Fulham.

Centre-back Martinez, who set up Bruno Fernandes’ stoppage-time winner in United’s 2-1 win over Rangers in the Europa League on Thursday, found the net as Ruben Amorim’s men claimed their second Premier League win in three matches.

It was another blunt attacking display from United, who managed just one shot on target, but the valuable three points moved the Red Devils above Crystal Palace and up to 12th in the Premier League table.
