Bassey netted the game’s curtain raiser late in the first half with a powerful header.
It was the Nigeria international’s first-ever goal in the competition.
Bruno Fernandes equalised for United 19 minutes from time.
Fulham later prevailed 4-3 on penalities.
“It’s a privilege and an honour to be here. To come here, it is a blessing, so I’m happy,” Bassey told BBC.
“I like to say I’m a bit of a poacher. Trying to smell where the ball would go and reacted first. Put my head on it and back of the net.
“They’re a very good team with a lot of talent. We tried to take the sting out of the game and control possession.”
