Nobel Mendy scored Hull City’s second goal against Manchester United in the 2026–27 Premier League opener.
Mendy doubled Hull’s lead seven minutes before half-time at the MKM Stadium. He headed Regan Slater’s precisely delivered free-kick beyond the Manchester United goalkeeper, making it 2–0 before the interval.
The goal was especially notable because it came on Mendy’s debut for Hull. Semi Ajayi had already opened the scoring in the 17th minute, so Mendy’s finish completed a two-goal first half for the promoted club.
Hull preserved the clean sheet after the break and secured a 2–0 victory. The result ended an 11-match winless run against Manchester United and represented Hull’s first Premier League win over the Red Devils. Mendy’s goal was therefore both a debut goal and the decisive second strike in a famous result.
