A wrong-footed David de Gea will take much of the blame for Manchester United's second consecutive defeat as the Red Devils were beaten 1-0 by West Ham United.


The three points move the Hammers towards Premier League safety as they now sit seven points clear of the bottom three with three games to go.


It also ended a run of three consecutive defeats for David Moyes' team, with the coach recording his first Premier League win against the club since his brief stint in charge at Old Trafford.


Benrahma's winner

The only goal of the game came when Luke Shaw lost possession on halfway and Said Benrahma broke through surrounded by Manchester United defenders.


A tame effort caught De Gea off guard and he was easily beaten by a shot which wasn't even close to the corner of his net.In the second period, West Ham would score again only for Tomas Soucek to be ruled offside, while United struggle to counter.


Top four challenge

Lukas Fabianski was in fine form in the West Ham goal, denying Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial as the visitors piled on the pressure.


Coming into this game after a last-gasp defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion, the eventual 1-0 scoreline means Liverpool are now only two points behind United with one extra game played.It also ended a run of three consecutive defeats for David Moyes' team, with the coach recording his first Premier League win against the club since his brief stint in charge at Old Trafford.Coming into this game after a last-gasp defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion, the eventual 1-0 scoreline means Liverpool are now only two points behind United with one extra game played.The three points move the Hammers towards Premier League safety as they now sit seven points clear of the bottom three with three games to go.
