Mata should have scored at the back post.
McTominay starts the move well and slips the ball out to Pereira. He cuts the ball across to the incoming Mata who should have finished the effort to the net.
And on that cheery note from Keane, we’ll leave it at that.

“I knew things were bad but I’m shocked and saddened about how bad Manchester United were today,” says Roy Keane with a damning assessment of the result.
“There was a lack of characters, a lack of quality, a lack of leaders.
Worrying times for Man United as the Hammers move up to fourth with a thoroughly deserved victory at home.
Yarmolenko got them off the mark with a goal just before half-time after what was a very disappointing first half.
Man United appeared to step up their game after the restart and came close to getting an equaliser. But Aaron Cresswell settled the clash with a well-taken free which he placed in the top corner.
Noble draws a free from Ashley Young and Cresswell has another chance to test De Gea.

Not a bad effort from Cresswell whose shot just trails over the bar. Man United come back down the other end and try to put James through but Fabianski does well again to win the race for possession.
The ball comes to Lingard but his shot is blocked and the visitors have a corner.

SAVE!!
Maguire sees his shot saved by Fabianski but he really should have scored. The chance came from a corner which found Maguire out on the opposite side of the penalty area.
He headed the ball down to McTominary to tee up the shot and Maguire went for power. But the shot was straight at the West Ham keeper.
The pace has really jumped up a few notches in the second half and both sides are much more intent on engineering attacks.

De Gea reacts to deny Anderson from close range and keep the deficit at just one goal. Yarmolenko was instrumental in that move to flick the ball into Anderson to apply the finish, but the Man United keeper did well to keep the ball out from a tight angle.

“It summed up United’s performances, just not good enough.” – Roy Keane fumes at his former club’s poor defending that led to West Ham’s goal.
After such a slow and laboured opening, West Ham have finally broken the deadlock with the first meaningful attack of the afternoon.
And it’s Andriy Yarmolenko who finds the target with a shot from the edge of the area. The marking from Man United was poor and they now find themselves trailing by a goal.
Another promising West Ham attack but they can’t get the finish off, but they get another throw-in.
An attempted cross from Yarmolenko is blocked out and Daniel James earns a free from Diop.

Haller does well to turn over possession in Man United’s half of the pitch to set-up a counter-attack and put the visitors under a bit of pressure in the early minutes.
