MANCHESTER, England -- Michael Carrick has brought simplicity back to Manchester United, but he will never be able to end the chaos. Yet after watching Benjamin Sesko score a stoppage-time winner to seal a 3-2 victory against Fulham, it was simplicity and chaos in unison.
United had been coasting to three points at Old Trafford, having built a 2-0 lead through goals by Casemiro and Matheus Cunha, but an 85th-minute Raúl Jiménez penalty followed by Kevin's stunning equalizer in the first minute of stoppage time looked set to hand Fulham a point and halt the momentum of Carrick's brief reign in charge.
