Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford scored a last-second winner as they beat West Ham United 1-0 at Old Trafford in the Premier League on Saturday to move up to fourth spot. Substitute Rashford tapped in a low cross from Edinson Cavani deep into stoppage time after United had broken down the left flank with the final move of the match. The win means United move above West Ham with 38 points from 22 matches while the Hammers are now fifth on 37 from 23.

Until Rashford’s goal finished off an attack started by Cristiano Ronaldo and also featuring Anthony Martial there had been few chances at either end in a disappointingly dull game. Tomas Soucek had gone close to scoring for the Londoners near the end with a glancing header from a corner which flashed just wide of the far post.

52 mins: Foden passes the ball up to Grealish who tries to slip around Salisu but loses the ball. The defender has been fantastic for Southampton today.

The Saints don’t maintain possession for long and Foden drives City towards the box again. He lays it off to Sterling but he’s forced backwards under pressure and can’t pick out Walker with a pass.

Southampton 1 - 0 Man City

Southampton and Man City have both had the same amount of shots on target (1) in the first half. Pep Guardiola will not be happy at all with what he’s seen over those 45 minutes. In contrast Ralph Hasenhuttl will be encouraging his players to just keep going. As it stands Southampton will end the day in the top 10.
