West Ham end Man Utd’s winning run

But Nuno Espirito Santo’s men disrupted the attacking flow that Carrick’s side had shown in putting Arsenal, Manchester City, and Tottenham to the sword in recent weeks.

Tomas Soucek converted Jarrod Bowen’s cross early in the second half to give the home side the lead.

Casemiro had an equaliser ruled out after a VAR review for offside.

But West Ham were denied a priceless win at the death when Sesko brilliantly flicked in Bryan Mbeumo’s cross.

Benjamin Sesko salvaged a 1-1 draw for Manchester United at West Ham as Michael Carrick’s perfect start came to an end on Tuesday, while Tottenham’s 2-1 defeat to Newcastle pushed Thomas Frank closer to the exit door.

The Hammers kept one United fan, who has vowed not to cut his hair until the Red Devils win five consecutive games, waiting as they boosted their chances of survival despite the setback of Sesko’s stoppage-time strike.

The manner of United’s impressive four consecutive wins since Carrick took charge had seen calls for the former midfielder, who has been appointed until the end of the season, to be handed the job on a more permanent basis.
