Manchester United goalkeeper Senne Lammens’ gesture following Raul Jimenez penalty caught the eyeing during the five goal thriller at Old Trafford.

United’s resurgence under interim manager Michael Carrick continued in breathless fashion on Sunday, as a 94th-minute winner from Benjamin Sesko secured a dramatic 3-2 victory over Fulham.

The win marks Carrick’s third consecutive win since taking over as interim manager, propelling United back into the Premier League’s top four.

What Senne Lammens did right after Raul Jimenez scored

While the late goals provided the headlines, one of the afternoon’s most surreal moments occurred in the 85th minute.

After Harry Maguire was judged to have felled Raul Jimenez in the box, the Mexican striker stepped up and dispatched a clinical penalty into the top corner, cutting United’s lead to 2-1.

Rather than the usual scenes of frustration or gamesmanship, Manchester United goalkeeper Senne Lammens was seen performing an act of pure sportsmanship.

As Jimenez turned to celebrate, Lammens calmly picked the ball out of the net and approached the Fulham forward.

According to BBC Radio 5 Live commentator Alistair Bruce-Ball, the Belgian keeper “congratulated Raul Jimenez on the class of that penalty,” acknowledging the perfection of the strike even as it threatened his side’s lead.

The goodwill from Lammens was nearly overshadowed by a defensive collapse.

Just minutes after the penalty, Fulham substitute Kevin silenced the Stretford End with a stunning stoppage-time equaliser, curling a shot past Lammens to make it 2-2.

However, Michael Carrick’s United seems to have rediscovered the “Fergie Time” DNA.

In the 94th minute, Bruno Fernandes crossed the ball from the right which found Benjamin Sesko.

The Slovenian striker took a sharp touch before turning and slamming the ball home, sending fans into frenzy.

This is the second consecutive late winner from Man United, after Matheus Cunha scored a stunning winner against Arsenal last week.

The result maintains Carrick’s 100% record, following wins over Manchester City and Arsenal, and cements United’s position as the form team of early 2026.

More than the wins, it is the performances and the fighting spirit that Carrick has instilled immediately that suggests that the old Man United DNA might just be back.

Leicester City are looking to improve their squad and has identified Valencia youngster Raul Jimenez as a target.

According to a report from Spanish publication AS via Sport Witness, Leicester City have submitted an attractive offer for the Spain Under-20 international. It will be interesting to see if Valencia are willing to sanction his departure.

Raul Jimenez is a top talent

The 19-year-old goalkeeper joined the La Liga club’s academy in 2020, and he is highly rated at the club. He has been a star for the Spanish national team at the youth level, but he is in the final year of his contract with Valencia, and Leicester City are looking to capitalise on that.

Valencia are unwilling to let the player leave, and they are prepared to renew his contract until 2028. They will include a €60 million release clause in his contract if the player commits his long-term future to them. It remains to be seen how the situation develops. Leicester City will certainly hope that the player does not sign a new contract with Valencia, as they are unlikely to be able to afford €60 million for him.

Can Leicester sign Jimenez?

Jimenez is highly rated in Spain, and he has a bright future. He could develop into a quality player for Leicester City if they can get the deal done. They have had a disappointing season in the Championship so far, and they are fighting for survival. They will look to build a formidable team for the future, and signing the 19-year-old would be a solid long-term investment.

It will be interesting to see if the player is willing to join a second-division club in England. The move to England could be an exciting opportunity for him, especially if the Foxes are willing to provide him with ample opportunities at a high level. It could accelerate his development and help him fulfil his potential.
