Rio Ferdinand reacts to Manchester United beating West Ham with a late winner

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Rio Ferdinand has shared his reaction as Manchester United defeated West Ham thanks to a late winner from Marcus Rashford. In a game of very few chances, it ended up being Ralf Rangnick's substitutions which turned the tide in favour of the Red Devils.

All three of the interim boss' subs played their part in what turned out to be the winning goal of the game. Anthony Martial laid the ball off to Edinson Cavani on the left hand side of the box, and the Uruguayan's low cross picked out Rangnick's first alteration of the game - Marcus Rashford - who tapped the ball home to send Old Trafford wild.

West Ham were left feeling aggrieved at full time as their fans and players alike believed Cavani was offside in the build-up to Rashford's winner.

VAR did check the decision to allow the goal but saw no reason to overturn the on-field call by the referee. And Ferdinand, who played for both United and the Hammers, took to Twitter to share his thoughts on the match. "Big result that for Manchester United," the BT Sport pundit said. "West Ham will be disappointed with that after a solid performance. "Marcus Rashford two goals in two games." The win sees United move above West Ham into fourth in the Premier League table.
