Matheus Cunha scored the equalizing goal to secure a 1-1 draw for Manchester United against Fulham at Craven Cottage on Sunday. The result leaves United 12th in the Premier League table with a record of two wins from their first seven games in all competitions this season. The team enters the three-week international break on a three-game winless streak.

According to ESPN, Cunha cited the club's recovery during the previous campaign as a reason for optimism. Last season, United also won two of their opening seven fixtures under Ruben Amorim, who was dismissed in January. Following Michael Carrick's appointment, the team recovered to finish third in the Premier League despite early season speculation regarding potential relegation to the Championship.

United will return to action in October to face a schedule that includes fixtures against Tottenham, Atletico Madrid, and Como. While Cunha expressed a desire to play immediately to rectify recent results, he noted that the extended break may allow the squad to reset under Carrick. The upcoming three-week hiatus is currently the longest international break on record.
