for Ajax against FC Volendam the previous season.Calvin Bassey who isn’t exactly known for his goal-scoring prowess, only ever

   Calvin Bassey nets first Fulham goal

The goal by Calvin Bassey turned out to be very important as Fulham defeated Manchester United at Old Trafford in a historic victory.

With 89 minutes remaining, Harry Maguire finished like a poacher in the Fulham six-yard box, giving the Red Devils hope that they

had salvaged a point.

However, Alex Iwobi, Calvin Bassey’s partner for the Nigeria national team, stole the three points deep into injury time when he gave

the goalkeeper the look and finished coolly into the near corner. With Manchester United in sixth place and Fulham now eight points

behind Aston Villa in fourth place and a Champions League spot, the outcome moves Fulham up to 12th in the Premier League

standings. Calvin Bassey’s goal would have been applauded by Rangers supporters worldwide as if it had been their own.

The former youth product of Leicester City is still a tremendously popular figure at Ibrox, having broken the club record for transfers

($20 million) when he joined Ajax in 2022.
