Ratings
Aesthetically Pleasing 22/30
it's thrilling to see a winger move at Martial's pace even if the defending could be better.

Fulham's defenders provide minimal resistance but Martial still has the ability to retain control of the ball and complete the move.
Uniqueness 11/20
A pretty standard individual goal by Premier League standards.
Importance 6/10
Edged United close to victory at hapless Fulham
Standard of Opposition 5/10
FULHAM
FootballCritic Verdict
It's a thrill to see such direct running in the modern game, but loses marks for the poor defending from one of the worst Premier League teams.
