Fulham forward Alex Iwobi revealed Kobbie Mainoo accidentally injured his hand during the Premier League clash at Old Trafford, which Manchester United won 3-2 thanks to Benjamin Sesko's late winner.

Speaking on his matchday vlog, Iwobi praised Mainoo but said: 'Shout-out to Kobbie Mainoo. But Kobbie, you finished my hand. Kobbie, you absolutely finished my hand. This guy's got Ghanaian strength!'

Iwobi also criticised VAR and reflected on Fulham's fightback, mentioning Kevin's stoppage-time equaliser, Samuel [Chukwueze]'s involvement and Raul Jimenez's penalty, while saying his side felt hard done by United's late goal.

Mainoo has started United's last three games since Ruben Amorim's departure and received praise from Michael Carrick, who called him 'a joy to watch' and said the club must keep supporting his development as United prepare to host Tottenham.
