Manchester United advanced to the EFL Cup semifinals with a largely dominant performance. Penned back by West Ham after they had taken an early lead, they emerged as 4-1 winners thanks to some of the most cohesive attacking play they have produced all season.
Positives
There was excellence throughout United's attack, with Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Anthony Martial and Wayne Rooney the stars while Zlatan Ibrahimovic ended up not too far behind. Antonio Valencia's final ball was pleasingly decisive and Marcos Rojo continued his recent vein of impressive form.
Negatives
If there are any criticisms, they must involve Ibrahimovic's indecisive finishing after he scored the game's opening goal.
