Football news - Manchester United dumped out of Carabao Cup as Manuel Lanzini sends West Ham through

West Ham secured a 1-0 win against Manchester United in the third round of the Carabao Cup courtesy of an early Manuel Lanzini strike.

The visitors took the lead in the ninth minute at Old Trafford when Ryan Fredericks teed up Lanzini for a tidy finish past Dean Henderson.

Henderson was one of a number of players brought in by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after Sunday’s win at West Ham, as well as Victor Lindelof, Eric Bailly, Alex Telles, and Diogo Dalot at the back. Cristiano Ronaldo and Paul Pogba were both rested.

With half an hour remaining, Solskjaer introduced Mason Greenwood and he almost scored with his first touch, but for Alphonse Areola’s save.

United ramped up the pressure but they lacked Ronaldo’s quality and Pogba’s ability to create from nothing. Bruno Fernandes was introduced but Areola remained steadfast in goal as David Moyes remained in contention for his first major trophy.

It could have been two, but Andriy Yarmolenko hit the post after rounding Henderson and Mark Noble fired straight at him in a one-on-one with the game dying.

United lost in part because they were prosaic in their attack play and did not take their chances when they were presented to them, but they can also be rightly miffed with the decision not to award them a penalty when Jesse Lingard was tugged down in the box. Noble made little effort to conceal it and it was as blatant as it can get.

Lanzini deserves credit for his cool finish at the start of the game, and the winner instantly put the focus on West Ham as they understandably sat back. Areola was hardly exceptional during the game but he was reliable enough to stand out.
