Manchester United defeated West Ham 2-1 in the Premier League clash as Solskjaer’s side moved up to fifth position in the league.
Paul Pogba scored two goals from penalty kicks as Manchester United moved up to 5th position in the Premier League with a 2-1 win over West Ham.
Solskjaer’s men, however, looked far from convincing as the side was shaky at the back. The Manchester United manager fielded a second-string defence in the absence of Luke Shaw and Ashley Young.
Players like Michail Antonio and Felipe Anderson exploited the lack of experience on the wings, with the latter getting the goal.
However, two rough fouls inside the penalty box on Juan Mata (in the first half) and Anthony Martial (in the second half) led to two penalty kicks, which were coolly converted by Pogba.
With this win, Manchester United have displaced Arsenal at fifth. However, Unai Emery’s side has a game in hand.
