Manchester United set an unwanted record after suffering a shock 2-0 defeat to newly promoted Hull City, in their first Premier League fixture on Saturday.

Super Eagles star Semi Ajayi and Noel Mendy got Hull City’s goals in the 17th and 38th minutes respectively.

Ajayi volleyed into an empty net, reacting quickest to a rebound, after the United defence failed to deal with a corner kick.

Mendy then doubled the lead as he nodded home a well floated set piece past the United keeper.

According to OptaJoe, the defeat means United have lost on the opening day of a league season to a newly promoted side for the first time in their history, having won 10 of the first 13 instances (three draws).
