Football: Hull City Stun Manchester United On Return To Premier League
Sir Alex Ferguson: Hull City on Saturday pulled off a miraculous win over Manchester United on their return to the Premier League after a decade. The Tigers, who are playing English top-flight football for the first time since 2016-17, beat the 13-time winners 2-0 with goals from Semi Ajayi and Nampalys Mendy at the MKM Stadium.
Ajayi opened the scoring sheet in the 17th minute with his strike from close range after a corner kick. The joy doubled when club-record signee Mendy scored on his debut in the 38th minute from another set piece. This time, Regan Slater set things up for the French-born Senegalese defender to smash the other into the back of the net, hitting the Red Devils with a double whammy.
The side was bolstered after Marcus Rashford was handed the No.9 shirt on his return from Barcelona, where he was on loan. However, the England international started on the bench and came on only after they were 0-2 down, as he failed to inspire a comeback.
