Manchester United beat Fulham 4-1 at home and managed to pick up a win after a series of disappointing results.
The high point of the game was the fact that Romelu Lukaku found the net after ages at Old Trafford with Juan Mata scoring and assisting one.
Ashley Young scored the first goal of the game while Marcus Rashford caught out the Fulham keeper at his near point with a long ranger.
Paul Pogba did not make an appearance during the game which in many ways was a good thing for the whole team.
Juan Mata also reached a personal milestone during the game as the Spaniard has now managed to clock up 50 goals and 50 assists in the Premier League.
And his fellow teammate Anthony Martial chose to congratulate him on Twitter.
Juan Mata posted a picture of him on Twitter to which Anthony Martial replied, ‘El Mago’ which translates to ‘the magician’.
El Mago 😍

But the fans instead of focusing on Juan Mata urged Anthony Martial to sign a new deal at the club calling him the French Ronaldo.
Sign the contact you can't leave Mata by himself

Anthony Martial was clearly out of favour at the start of the season but slowly the forward has managed to win back the faith of Jose Mourinho and now the Frenchman is one of the first names on the team sheet for Jose Mourinho.
Anthony Martial has managed to push Alexis Sanchez down the pecking order so much so that the Chilean reportedly wants to leave the club in January.
