‘There’s no better feeling’ — Iwobi couldn’t hide his joy

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 spoke 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.
