Zirkzee’s Debut Goal Sees Manchester United Defeat Fulham In The League Opener—-Joshua Zirkzee scored on debut to give Manchester United victory over Fulham on the opening day of the Premier League season.

United have splashed £150million on four new signings in the summer transfer window – and it was Zirkzee, a £36m arrival from Bologna, who made the difference. The Dutchman turned in fellow substitute Alejandro Garnacho’s cross late on to win it for Erik ten Hag’s side.

The goal came at the perfect time for United, who had otherwise looked uninspired at Old Trafford, but did have the better chances through Bruno Fernandes and Mason Mount.

United started sluggishly but mustered the only two real chances of the first half only for Fernandes to twice be denied by Bernd Leno after being played in by Casemiro. Mount tested Leno again but Fulham looked to be holding on for a point before Zirkzee’s impact. Here are the talking points.

JUST IN: Callous As Libya Govt Begin Mass Arrest Of Nigerians And Deport Workers Over CAF Verdict

CAF Verdict

JUST IN: Callous As Libya Govt Begin Mass Arrest Of Nigerians And Deport Workers Over CAF Verdict—-Following a recent ruling by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) Disciplinary Board against the Libya Football Federation (LFF), tensions have heightened within Libyan media, with several platforms calling for punitive measures against Nigerian workers in the country.

The CAF Disciplinary Board penalized the LFF with a $50,000 fine and awarded a 3-0 forfeit victory to Nigeria.

This decision stemmed from an incident in which the Nigerian team, the Super Eagles, faced prolonged detainment at Al Abraq Airport, delaying their AFCON 2025 qualifying match.

Citing the LFF’s failure to meet security and logistical obligations, CAF granted Nigeria three points in their qualification campaign.

In response, Libyan media outlets have voiced frustration, urging the government to act against undocumented Nigerian workers.

On Sunday, the Libyan blog Libya News Today 1 published a post advocating for the arrest of Nigerian workers without proper documentation, proposing a $500 fine and additional taxes from those without residence permits.

Another Libyan media outlet, Libya INF.TV, echoed these sentiments, also urging the arrest of undocumented Nigerians and suggesting that fines should be deducted from their earnings.

Amid the growing tension, Nigerian worker who goes by the name Omo Oba Legba described an escalation of the situation.

In a Facebook video on Wednesday, he stated,

“My Arab master, who is a policeman, just called me now and told me not to go out to buy anything because they have started arresting Nigerians in Libya. I asked him, ‘What about those with Libyan passports?’ But he said they aren’t considering passports and that anyone who is Nigerian will be arrested. That’s why I decided to alert our people so they know how far this issue has gone.”

The crackdown continued to draw reactions, with Libya INF.TV sharing a video on Thursday in which a Nigerian man pleaded with Libyan authorities, “Football has nothing to do with us. If you want to catch them, catch them when they come here. Leave us out of this. And to the Nigerian team, I don’t know what you’re thinking, coming here to play football with the Libyan people. You don’t have sense. Please,

Libyan police, please.”
