Man Utd started the match quite confidently despite playing away. After the first 15 minutes, Man Utd had 5 shots, an average of 1 shot every 3 minutes. On the opposite goal, West Ham did not have any dangerous opportunities.
The most notable chances of the first half came from Alejandro Garnacho and Diogo Dalot. In the first phase, Garnacho received a pass and shot the ball against the goalpost. In the 32nd minute, Dalot broke through on the right wing, passed goalkeeper Fabianski to open a shooting angle. With only an empty goal in front of him, Dalot continued to kick the ball against the crossbar.
Garnacho's goal was denied by the crossbar.
In the 40th minute, West Ham's goal shook for the third time after Eriksen's corner kick. The ball lightly hit the head of defender Alvarez, causing goalkeeper Fabianski to miss his step. It seemed like a goal would come for Man Utd, but the ball hit the crossbar again.
In the first half alone, the Red Devils had at least four clear chances to score. Their expected goals (xG) was 1.48, but Ten Hag's players could not capitalize on them.
Despite attacking a lot but failing to score, Man Utd had to pay in the 74th minute. Ironically, West Ham opened the scoring with their first shot on target. After Danny Ings missed, Summerville rushed in to score the rebound, "opening his account" in the Premier League.
Man Utd responded immediately just 7 minutes later. From Joshua Zirkzee's header, Casemiro took advantage of the opportunity to head the ball in. From close range, the Brazilian midfielder put the ball into the net, equalizing 1-1 for Man Utd.
The climax came in the 87th minute, when centre-back Matthijs De Ligt tackled Danny Ings harshly. Mr. David Coote stopped the match to seek advice from the VAR referee team. After 3 minutes of deliberation, referee Coote awarded a penalty to the home team. From the 11m mark, Jarrod Bowen shot the ball dangerously, defeating Andre Onana even though he guessed the right direction.
The match was added 14 minutes of injury time, but this was still not enough time for Man Utd to find an equalizer. In the end, Erik Ten Hag's team suffered a 1-2 defeat at London Stadium, falling to 14th place.
Bowen knocked down Onana from the penalty spot.
This is Man Utd's second defeat in the last 4 Premier League matches. More broadly, Man Utd have only won 1 match in the last 8 matches, reaching an extremely low rate of 12.5%. Ten Hag's future continues to be questioned after this result.
Man Utd's next opponent in the Premier League is Chelsea - the club that just had a hard-fought 2-1 win over Newcastle in the same match.
