West Ham smashed two goals past Manchester United in the English Premier League encounter at the London Stadium on Saturday.
Jarrod Bowen broke the deadlock in the 72nd minute following a lofted through ball from Paqueta which evaded Mainoo and Shaw.
The forward shot his first attempt at Onana before the ball ricochetted against him into the net.
Five minutes later, Ghanaian winger, Mohammed Kudus doubled the lead to bring the scoreline to 2-0.
Following last week’s goal-less draw at Anfield, United’s manager, Erik ten Hag, started the lineup with three teenagers – Kambwala, Mainoo and Garnacho; the first time United has done so in the EPL since May 2021.
United had a good chance at goal in the 35th minute after Garnacho had received a through pass from Antony.
The Argentinian, in a one-on-one situation, fired the ball into the hands of the Hammers’ goalkeeper.
Today’s 2-0 loss marks United’s fourth defeat in six games and 20th in all competitions in 2023.
The Hammers now move to sixth position, nine points behind table leaders, Arsenal.
The Reds couldn’t return to winning ways as they stayed in the eighth position.
