West Ham United vs Manchester United

Robin van Persie extended the hosts’ lead after 22 minutes but it was halved before the break as Diafra Sakho took advantage of poor defending from Manchester United at a corner.

Rooney’s dismissal enabled the visitors to push forward in the final 30 minutes, and they had a goal disallowed late on when substitute Kevin Nolan was offside, but Manchester United were able to hold on to claim a second win under Louis #vanGaal.

With injuries ravaging his squad, the Dutchman was forced into two changes in defence, with Paddy McNair and Luke Shaw coming in for their debuts in place of the injured Jonny Evans and the suspended Tyler Blackett.

#WestHam also made two alterations from their 3-1 win over Liverpool, as Morgan Amalfitano and #Diego Poyet were handed their first starts, but the visitors were not given time to settle and Rooney opened the scoring after five minutes.
