- Hull City beat Manchester United 2-0 at the MKM Stadium on the Premier League's opening weekend, in what the source calls a "dream start" to their return to the top flight.
- Manchester United opened their Premier League campaign with a defeat, with cross-coverage headlines from BBC Sport and Sky Sports framing the result as the visitors lacking readiness and fight.
Why it matters: A promoted side beating one of the league's traditional heavyweights on opening weekend immediately challenges assumptions about how the new season will shake out.
