Martinez scored the game’s lone goal as United extended their successful recent run over Fulham by winning late at Craven Cottage for the third consecutive season. After a poor Premier League performance, United would not have been too upset if they had lost again, but they were grateful to substitute Collyer for making sure they held on for all three.

In the closing minutes of the game, the 21-year-old made a significant contribution to the action by reading the game well and clearing a header from Joachim Andersen off the goal line. He made an impression in West London as a substitute.

It was one of Collyer’s best moments in his senior career to date and demonstrated why the academy graduate is already so trusted by new head coach Ruben Amorim. After the game, matchwinner Martinez lavished the young player with accolades for his equally significant role to the outcome. “Toby Collyer is the reason I am so pleased. He told TNT Sports, “This person is a great role model for the younger generation. “He works so hard every day and is quite modest.

“I am pleased with how we prevailed in the match. Who scoring is irrelevant; the three points are what count most. It has great significance. Not just for the fans, but also for us, as we have endured a great deal of hardship. We are here, but it is a difficult victory, and this club is under a lot of strain. We are aware of how challenging it is. Even in a game like tonight, we must triumph and then show humility.

After starting against Rangers in the middle of the week, Collyer was placed back on the bench. Following his recent exposure, he is hoping to earn a spot in Amorim’s first squad. “Unbelievable, coming from a World Cup winner,” he continued when asked about his performance and Martinez’s compliment. Really, there was nothing more I could ask for. a challenging setting, which improves your character and as a player. I want to get better every day and contribute as much as I can to the squad.

He went on when asked about his goalline clearance: “I recall thinking, ‘has that gone over?’ after clearing it. We worked together as a team.
