Man Utd 3 – 1 West Ham



Man Utd 3 – 1 West Ham

Alejandro Garnacho inspired Man Utd to a late comeback 3-1 win against West Ham as Erik ten Hag’s men progressed to the FA Cup quarter-finals.

Sunday’s 2-0 victory against Newcastle secured the Old Trafford giants’ first silverware since 2017 in the Carabao Cup but the manager’s immediate message to his players was “get back to work”.

United looked set to be brought back down to earth with a bump after Said Benrahma put David Moyes’ West Ham into a deserved lead at Old Trafford.

But Nayef Aguerd’s 77th-minute own goal sparked an impressive turnaround, with teenager Garnacho’s superb 90th-minute effort followed by a stoppage-time strike by Fred in a 3-1 triumph.

There was a sense of relief among the delighted celebrations as Ten Hag’s men progressed from the fifth-round tie despite a shaky performance, keeping their hopes of a quadruple alive.
