In the end, Manchester United lost a point in the 26th minute of the first half. Aaron Wan-Bissaka hits the middle and pokes it at Mohammed Kudus. Thomas Soucek exquisitely turned the ball that Kudus connected to the center and cut into Manchester United's net. United lost control after losing a point, making the game difficult.

Hoyleun, who received Ahmad's pass in the 33rd minute of the first half, boldly tried to shoot, but there was no chance. A minute later, Mount put a perfect pass on Hoyleun, but Hoyleun's finish was ridiculous. For Manchester United, it was a first half where everything had to be changed.

Manchester United also sought an opportunity to counterattack. Ahmad broke through boldly in the eighth minute of the second half. Mount, who took over the ball, tried to shoot but was blocked by the goalkeeper.

But West Ham opened the gap. In the 12th minute of the second half, West Ham had a chance to counterattack as a mistake came from behind Manchester United. After Kudus disturbed the defense, Wan-Bissaka turned the ball over to Jerod Bowen. Bowen finished lightly.

United tried to fight back. The mood began to change as Alejandro Garnacho, who came in as a substitute, shook the side. Manchester United blew a crucial chance. In the 29th minute of the second half, Ahmad came out on the counterattack. He perfectly conceded a chance to Hoyleun, but his shot was blocked by the goalkeeper.

Manchester United missed the opportunity to score one after another. Bruno's free kick came up sharply in the 34th minute of the second half. Hoylun had a chance to score, but the goalkeeper managed to save it.




Manchester United broke the flow as they lost chances one after another. In the end, he was humiliated at home. It's familiar for United this season.
