Alex Iwobi can’t hide his excitement after helping Fulham beat Manchester United at the Old Trafford on Saturday.
The Nigeria international scored a stoppage time winner in the 2-1 victory.
His compatriot Calvin Bassey gave Fulham the lead following an assist from Timothy Castagne.
Harry Maguire then equalised for Manchester United late on.

Iwobi’s fourth goal of the season gave Fulham maximum points in the keenly contested encounter.
“I’m over the moon right now, to win at Old Trafford in the last minute is crazy, there’s no better feeling,” he told the club’s official website.
“We feel like we performed really well, we’ve been performing well recently, and today is a step in the right direction and hopefully, we can kick on from there.”
The Nigeria international also reflected on his winning strike : “As soon as I cut inside, I felt like the keeper was going to be in the far corner, so I gave him the eyes and it went in. I haven’t seen his reaction, but everyone said he couldn’t move, so a goal is a goal, I’ll take it and move on to the next,” he added.

Nice one one of our best players you always know how to shut people up
Indeed. He really knows the best times to shut his haters up.
Very ungrateful bunch of people.
This is a player they should be thanking for sacrificing himself and his personal glory to play a defensive midfield/deep-lying playmaker role he has hardly ever played all his life.
At least we know a certain player the whole nation had to beg to play RWB (a role he gladly played at his club) for us at the 2018 WC, he reluctantly agreed and his reluctance on the field of play eventually denied a place in the R16.

Truth @Dr Drey, and he thereafter decided to call it quit with the National Team to concentrate on his club duties……………however he was frozen out of the club thereafter sharp sharp
They really make us proud.
The following are what make the victory sweet:
1. Both of them are Nigerian
2. The match was at Old Trafford
3. The defeat that Onana ( Cameroon goal keeper) dodge at afcon was given to him by the two Nigerian that also played Cameroon at afcon.
God bless Nigeria.
