Manchester United vs West Ham - How it happened

 West Ham responded, but Andre Onana and the United backline held firm. 

After a goalkeeper change for West Ham due to injury, United extended their lead early in the second half through Alejandro Garnacho's deflected shot. 

Despite the Red Devils' well-documented defensive vulnerabilities, a solid performance secured a clean sheet. Scott McTominay set up Garnacho for his second goal, sealing a comfortable 3-0 win.

 United's defensive improvement keeps them in the race for a top-four finish.
