West Ham United secured a 2-0 victory against Manchester United at the London Stadium on Sunday afternoon, with goals from Andriy Yarmolenko and Aaron Cresswell at both ends of each half handing the Hammers their third win of the Premier League campaign. Manuel Pellegrini’s men haven’t lost since their 5-0 defeat at the hands of Manchester City on the opening weekend of the season, and will fancy their top-six chances after putting one of their rivals for the European spots to the sword.
The visitors kept fighting till the end, and while Yarmolenko’s 44th-minute strike dealt on a huge blow on their chances, Cresswell’s 84th-minute wonder of a freekick took the wind out of their sails.
