West Ham United 1 v Manchester United 2. What a dramatic win! On an afternoon where referee Martin Atkinson and VAR refused us two penalties, it was a penalty save, yes a penalty save from David de Gea that won us the game.
At 1-1 with minutes to go, in a game United had dominated possession wise, the game exploded into life. Matic came on for Fred and within a minute he’d played his second forward ball trying to find us the win. Sub himself Lingard picked the ball up just inside their area and with a couple of side steps smashed the ball into the top corner.
It was a difficult game for United, but we deserved the win even though we weren’t outstanding. As always though, United just kept going forward right until the end.
Unfortunately with the game looking won, Shaw handled a cross and a penalty was eventually given by Atkinson after checking VAR. West Ham subbed on their penalty specialist Mark Noble to face our non-specialist of penalty saves De Gea. Up stepped big Dave though with a brilliant save to win the game for United. Well done Dave!
What a last few minutes that would have been in the away end celebrating that. Chaos. I miss those days! Well played United.
