Manchester United’s 2026-27 season opener ended in a shocking 2-0 loss to newly promoted Hull City, as the Red Devils struggled to find rhythm against a high-energy opponent. Samuel Ajayi opened the scoring in the 17th minute off a set-piece lapse, and Nobel Mendy doubled the lead with a stunning free-kick header. United had a late chance to claw back into it, but their effort was brilliantly saved. Patrick Dorgu, starting on the left wing, was taken off at halftime after failing to register a shot on target or make a meaningful impact — his 45 minutes were marked by poor touches, inconsistent passing, and defensive lapses. The defeat has reignited debate over Dorgu’s role, especially in attack, as United now face an uphill battle to bounce back from this crushing start.
