Pogba’s wonder strike takes Manchester United to the top of the table
1 min read
A stunning winner from Paul Pogba helped Manchester United come from behind again to beat Fulham 2-1 on Wednesday and move back to the top of the Premier League.
Once again, United conceded first on the road this season, as Ademola Lookman was given all the time in the world to give his side a fifth-minute lead.
Seven times United have conceded first on the road in the Premier League this season, and seven times they have come back to win, with Edinson Cavani scoring a poacher’s goal in the 25th minute, before Pogba fired home a 25-yard thunderbolt to win it in the second half.
Manchester City had climbed back to the top of the table with victory over Aston Villa earlier on Wednesday evening but another away-day success sent United back above their noisy neighbours, while Fulham stay in the bottom three.
