Alejandro Garnacho’s stoppage-time goal snatched a 2-1 win for United over Fulham.
Eriksen opened the scoring with his first goal for the club early on, sliding forward to tap-in Fernandes’ cross.
De Gea who was omitted from Spain’s World Cup squad, was called into action to make some great saves throughout, with Fulham causing United some real problems throughout.
It was a former United player that equalised, with James coming off the bench to tap-in from close range, but the substitute Garnacho fired in the winner in the 92nd minute.
