Leny Yoro was the best Manchester United player vs Fulham

Manchester United were forced to settle for just a point as their clash with Fulham ended 1-1 at Craven Cottage on Sunday.

The Red Devils flew out of the blocks and earned a penalty just after the half-hour mark, sparking hopes of an early breakthrough.

Captain Bruno Fernandes blazed his effort into the stands, a costly miss that injected Fulham with belief and momentum.

An own goal gave the Red Devils the lead, but errors from Fernandes and Diogo Dalot allowed Emile Smith-Rowe to score the all-important equaliser.

While Matheus Cunha and Altay Bayindir showed great quality in key moments, Leny Yoro was easily United’s best player on the pitch.

Yoro’s defining moment came in the 53rd minute, when Josh King burst clear in what looked like a certain one-on-one with Bayindir.

The French teenager showed elite anticipation and recovery pace, executing a world-class sliding tackle from behind to nick the ball cleanly and deny King.
