Ole Gunnar Solskjær had to turn to Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford already at half-time. Then the match for Manchester United turned around.
WEST HAM – MANCHESTER UNITED 1-3:
Solskjær probably would have preferred to avoid involving Fernandes and Rashford in PL’s clash against West Ham on Saturday, but the Norwegian already had to put them both in at half-time.
Then he had seen his United team fight a lot offensively against David Moyes’ team, and also fail completely on defensive plays.
Tomas Soucek gave the hosts a well-deserved lead in the 38th minute when he made it 1-0 from a corner kick.
– Manchester United’s shocking mark when West Ham scores from a corner. Rice does not get depressed and Soucek does not get depressed, wrote The Times reporter Henry Winter Twitter after watching Soucek reap the consequences after Rice won their duel at the first post.
West Ham’s highest scorer was initially scored by Alex Telles, but as the Portuguese stood and looked at the ball as Rice dueled, Soucek sneaked in and scored.
Also on the pitch, Solskjær’s team struggled a lot, and the lack of Fernandes in particular was evident throughout the round.
He also pointed to Manchester Evening News reporter Samuel Luckhurst.
He also believes that the first half proved that Solskjærs made a mistake by saving both the Portuguese and Rashford early on.
– No wonder Solskjær made a mistake by “resting” for many key players.
Where Solskjær could have made a mistake saving his two biggest players early on, he did exactly the right thing by placing them from the start to the second half.
Led by their two key players, Manchester United turned the game around three minutes after the break after goals from Paul Pogba and Mason Greenwood.
– United does it again. It sinks, then it takes the lead. Fantastic Greenwood finish. West Ham will wonder how in the world this happened, he wrote. Luckhurst after United went up to 2-1.
In the end, Rashford also scored his well-deserved goal, and the 3-1 victory places Manchester United in fourth place with 19 points.
Bowen Show
However, the Manchester guests struggled early on against a clearly inspired West Ham.
Jarrod Bowen, in particular, played a brilliant first half against the Solskjær team, and the winger really stood out after half an hour of play.
The 24-year-old shoved the ball into his own half, advanced past Scott McTominay, sent Telles to the hot dog stand among the 2,000 spectators in London Stadium, before finding Pablo Fornals at the back post.
The Spaniard put his forehead to the ball, but the ball went to the wall of Dean Henderson’s net.
Not long after, the two main characters left when a post from Bowen made its way back to Fornals.
This time, the 24-year-old tried to push the ball into goal, but the ball rolled towards the post of United’s last defense.
However, seven minutes before the break, the goal came as Soucek slipped in for the first goal and at half-time Solskjær had seen enough.
The effects of Bruno and Rashford
Both Fernandes and Rashford entered from the beginning until the second half, and little by little the guests took the initiative in the match.
After 65 minutes, the tie also came when a Henderson (!) Punt found Fernandes. The Portuguese took the lead before facing Paul Pogba.
The Frenchman took the lead from almost 30 meters, and the ball went 1-1 by Lukasz Fabianski’s left.
From there, there was no turning back for the hosts, and just three minutes later the match was reversed.
The prodigy Mason Greenwood put the ball inside the field of West Ham, connected the five points and scored the 2-1.
Not long after, Rashford also stood out. The star forward shone after his entry into the field, but must share the credit with Juan Mata for his 3-1.
The latter got the ball in his own half, before on a bunt he sent Rashford just through with a brilliant pass.
Rashford made no mistake in scoring the game for the hosts.
– It’s almost like you are left speechless by the complete Mata game, exclaimed TV 2 commentator Endre Olav Osnes after the score.
