Manchester United lose 2-0 to Hull City in season opener

Manchester United began their Premier League campaign with a 2‑0 defeat at the hands of newly promoted Hull City, who secured a clean‑sheet victory at the MKM Stadium on Saturday. Hull’s early dominance was rewarded when forward Jacob Greaves opened the scoring in the 23rd minute, followed by a second strike from midfielder Ryan Longman just before halftime, giving the visitors a comfortable lead heading into the break.

The loss leaves United at the bottom of the table after their opening match, while Hull City celebrate a historic win in their first top‑flight appearance in over a decade. Both managers acknowledged the result, with United’s Erik ten Hag noting the need for a swift response to the early setback, and Hull’s Liam Rosenior praising his side’s organization and execution. United will look to regroup ahead of their next fixture, while Hull City aim to build momentum from their impressive start.
