Manchester United climb back to the top of the Premier League as a spectacular Paul Pogba goal come from behind again on Wednesday to defeat Fulham 2-1.
As Ademola Lookman was given all the time in the world to give a fifth-minute lead to his side, United conceded first on the road again this season.
Seven times this season, United conceded first on the road in the Premier League, and seven times they rallied to score, with Edinson Cavani scoring a poacher’s goal in the 25th minute, before Pogba shot a 25-yard thunderbolt at home to win it in the second half.
Earlier on Wednesday evening, Manchester City had climbed back to the top of the table with victory over Aston Villa but another away-day success sent United back above their noisy neighbours, while Fulham stay in the bottom three.
