Manchester United drew 1-1 with West Ham in a Premier League match. Diogo Dalot scored for United, impressing on the night, but the team’s substitutes struggled.
Ruben Amorim made tactical changes, including Ayden Heaven’s debut, who was replaced at halftime after a nervous start.
West Ham equalized late in the game through Soungoutou Magassa, capitalizing on a corner rebound.
United failed to create enough clear chances after taking the lead, leading to a frustrating draw where player performances, including those of Senne Lammens and Noussair Mazraoui, were closely rated.
Man United Player Ratings
1. Goalkeeper
Senne Lammens — 6/10
Lammens did not face many real tests, but when called upon he managed crosses confidently. He flagged a clearance nervously into the crowd — though it didn’t cost United until later.
2. Right-back
Noussair Mazraoui — 6.5/10
Mazraoui looked solid defensively and showed some attacking ambition with overlapping runs. However, his end product wasn’t quite there when United needed it.
3. Right-centre defender / wing-back slot
Ayden Heaven — 4/10
A difficult night for Heaven. He looked nervous from the start, making some poor positional choices and even picking up a yellow card. He did improve slightly before being substituted at half-time.
4. Left-back / left-wing defender
Luke Shaw — 5.5/10
Shaw’s defensive work was acceptable — he wasn’t overly exposed, though he didn’t get much support from his flanks. He also picked up a late yellow card.
Next: (Midfield + overall structure)
In midfield and the forward line, two players stood out, but a few others struggled to make an impact.
Midfield & attack
Diogo Dalot — (scored the goal for United)
Dalot delivered the crucial breakthrough: a deflected cross dropped to him in the box and he finished clinically past the keeper to give United the lead.
Despite that promising moment, after the goal United still found it hard to carve out clear-cut chances — the overall attacking rhythm remained disjointed.
Other midfielders / attackers — mixed night
The rest of the midfield and attacking players offered flashes of intent, but none could consistently influence the game or produce decisive end product. United’s lead lasted almost until the end — until West Ham equalised from a corner, punishing United for a rare lapse.
One or two players were below expectations — especially in defence and on the flanks — which arguably prevented United from putting the game to bed after taking the lead.
