08/25/2008 - Portsmouth, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Darren Fletcher's 32nd-minute goal was enough to give Manchester United its first win of the season as the Red Devils downed Portsmouth 1-0 at Fratton Park on Monday.
Fletcher scored his second goal in as many games after finishing off a cross from Patrice Evra, giving United four points from its first two games, while Portsmouth sits on the bottom of the table having lost to both Chelsea and United to start the season.
Both teams were intent on finding the net early in the match, but it was United that grabbed the opener midway through the half when Evra crossed from the wing to the center of the box for Fletcher, whose close-range effort was deflected by Sol Campbell on its way past Portsmouth goalkeeper David James.
The pace slowed a bit in the second half, but Pompey never managed to sustain a serious attack and United will head into their UEFA Super Cup contest on Friday against Zenit St. Petersburg with a win, while the schedule gets a bit easier for Harry Redknapp's men as they visit Everton.
