Match report
Semi Ajayi and Nobel Mendy scored in the first half, giving Hull City a solid 2-0 lead over Manchester United at the MKM Stadium.
In their first top-flight match in nine years—having secured promotion via the Championship play-offs—the “Tigers” were undaunted by the visitors, who started as clear favorites.
Ajayi opened the scoring in the 17th minute, reacting faster than the defense inside the box to pounce on a rebound and send the home crowd into raptures.
Manchester United dominated possession throughout the first half, controlling the ball for over 70% of the time, yet struggled to create clear-cut chances against a solid, well-organized home defense.
Hull extended their lead seven minutes before the break when Mendy rose above his marker to power home a header from a Regan Slater cross; the goal was confirmed following a VAR check.
The visitors sought an immediate response at the start of the second half, with Bruno Fernandes delivering a dangerous cross toward Harry Maguire at the far post.
Maguire diverted the ball into the path of Bryan Mbeumo, but Mendy managed to intervene before Oli McBurnie cleared the ball during the ensuing corner kick.
The “Tigers” calmly withstood the pressure in the second half, maintaining a positive record: the club has won every previous Premier League match in which they held a two-goal lead at halftime.
