Premier League: West Ham Move Past Man Utd With 2-0 Win At Old Trafford
West Ham United: Manchester United suffered a disappointing 2-0 home defeat to West Ham United at Old Trafford. Goals from Tomas Soucek and Jarrod Bowen secured the victory for Graham Potter’s side, lifting the visitors above United into 15th place in the table.
Former United man Aaron Wan-Bissaka, returning to Old Trafford for the first time since his departure, was heavily involved in both goals. Despite several chances and sustained second-half pressure, the Red Devils were unable to mount a successful comeback.
Ruben Amorim rotated his squad following Thursday’s Europa League semi-final triumph, with Mason Mount making a rare start and Amad returning to the XI. United began brightly, with Bruno Fernandes and Amad testing Alphonse Areola early, but it was West Ham who broke the deadlock in the 26th minute through Soucek, after a clever move down the left. The second half brought more urgency from United, but their efforts were repeatedly denied by the excellent Areola.
