While this fixture is as recent as a fortnight ago, it has been fresh in the memories of the Red Devils’ fans. Going into this match on the back of 3 wins in their last 4 matches in all competitions, Manchester United were hoping to find their way through the Boolean Ground.
Although West Ham were fighting for the Champions League positions earlier this season, but their form coming into this match was ordinary to say the least.
Having had one win in the Premier since the turn of the year, West Ham fans were hoping for the worst. However, what happened for the 90 minutes was beyond what anybody could have predicted.
Starting the match with a fully strengthened team with the likes of Radamel Falcao, Angel Di Maria, Robin Van Persie and Wayne Rooney all starting, on paper Manchester United were expected to run riot.
However, they had to rely on that last ditch Daley Blind effort to salvage some pride and most importantly, a point from West Ham.
