West Ham 0-1 Man Utd Highlights

Manchester United moved back to the top of the Premier League as a sublime Ryan Giggs goal saw them overcome West Ham.

The Hammers gave United with a stern test and Carlton Cole had an ambitious chip saved in their best chance.

The visitors were not at their free-flowing best but Giggs cut in from the left and curled in a shot to provide the moment of magic needed for the win.

West Ham tried to work a way back into the game but United stood firm to complete a 13th league clean sheet.

Second Half Highlights

The result ended West Ham’s run of six league games without a defeat and, despite their good play, they just could find a way through United’s defence.

Hammers boss Gianfranco Zola was famed for his style and vision as a player and his team showed plenty of that, along with a sense of purpose and industry, as they tried to end United’s run of seven league wins on the trot.
