Mason Greenwood cancels out Michail Antonio’s first-half penalty to see hosts needing just a point at top-four rivals Leicester to qualify for the Champions League next season.

  • Michail Antonio put West Ham in front at half-time after Paul Pogba gave away a penalty for handball 
  • United levelled soon after half-time via Mason Greenwood after fine work between he and Anthony Martial

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer kept faith with David de Gea last night and discovered another player who can let down Manchester United with his hands. It’s Paul Pogba.

Solskjaer can only hope his team show a little more backbone than the Frenchman when they face a Champions League shootout with Leicester City on Sunday.

This draw with West Ham moved United up to third place and means they only need a point at the King Power Stadium on the final day to clinch a top-four spot. Defeat and they could be staring at the Europa League again.
