West Ham bounced back from last weekend's humbling against Spurs with a well-deserved 2-1 win over Manchester United at the London Stadium.
Erik ten Hag's time at Manchester United has been full of ups and downs and this latest defeat to West Ham was just another addition to the list of negatives.
The Red Devils were coming off their first win in 6 games, but still rooted in mid-table and after a positive first half, the second half saw the same old issues return to the forefront.
United nearly broke the deadlock in the opening minutes, with Alejandro Garnacho smashing the crossbar. Ten Hag's men kept pressing as chances piled up.
Lukasz Fabiański denied Rasmus Hojlund from close range, while Bruno Fernandes headed over from Casemiro’s cross.
Diogo Dalot missed the biggest opportunity of the half, rounding Fabianski only to fire high and wide with an open net.
Julen Lopetegui made three changes at half-time and West Ham suddenly had more control.
The Hammers were rewarded as they broke the deadlock through substitute Crysencio Summerville. A quick move saw Bowen’s cutback reach Danny Ings, whose shot redirected off Summerville for his first goal of the season.
United tried to respond, and some shaky West Ham defending gave them hope, with Joshua Zirkzee nodding the ball down for Casemiro to head home from close range.
Matthijs De Ligt was called for a trip on Danny Ings in the last minute of normal time. After a lengthy VAR review, Bowen converted the penalty, securing a crucial win.
