West Ham United secured a historic 2-0 win over Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday, their first Premier League victory there in 18 years. Goals from Tomás Soucek and Jarrod Bowen lifted the Hammers to 15th in the table, ending an eight-game winless streak, while dropping United to 16th. Soucek opened the scoring in the 26th minute after a slick move down the left, dedicating his goal to his newborn son. Bowen added a second in the 57th minute, capitalizing on sloppy play from United, who have now fallen behind 1-0 at home 12 times this season — their worst record.
Despite creating 20 shots, Amorim’s side lacked finishing quality, with Bruno Fernandes admitting the missed chances were costly. West Ham goalkeeper Alphonse Areola made several key saves, including a crucial block against Rasmus Hojlund late on. United’s focus now shifts to their Europa League final against Tottenham, but Fernandes stressed they can’t afford to ignore the league. West Ham’s fans celebrated the rare triumph, recalling their last league win at Old Trafford back in 2007.
