Sabitzer flicked in at the near post to score his first United goal and make it 2-1 straight after as Fulham imploded. The fans were amazing and pushed us forward and were very happy we did it.

Bruno converted his penalty as the Red Devils seized the control of the game they had wonted for so long.

It was 2-1 to the hosts within minutes, as Fulham finished the match with nine (?!) men and a 3-1 loss.
