Manchester United Left Shocked As Late West Ham Goal Snatches Dramatic Draw At Old Trafford

Manchester United Rue Missed Chances As West Ham Strike Late

Manchester United fans were left frustrated once again as a late goal from Soungoutou Magassa denied the Red Devils all three points in a tense 1-1 draw at Old Trafford.
What looked like a routine victory slipped away in the 83rd minute, leaving United stuck in eighth place and still searching for consistency.


How The Match Unfolded

West Ham almost stunned the home crowd early when Aaron Wan-Bissaka accidentally set up Mateus Fernandes, whose shot was only kept out thanks to a Casemiro deflection.

United responded with waves of pressure:

  • Areola pulled off a superb save from Bryan Mbeumo

  • Wan-Bissaka, Todibo, and Bruno Fernandes all came close

  • Chaos in the West Ham box had fans on their feet

Despite United’s dominance, Jarrod Bowen kept the visitors dangerous, but new signing Senne Lammens was sharp to stop him.


United Looked In Control… Until They Weren’t

The second half opened with the same energy — Mbeumo kept asking questions of the West Ham defence, but Potts and Souček threw themselves into crucial blocks.

Eventually, the breakthrough arrived.

A loose ball from Casemiro fell to Diogo Dalot, who stayed composed and placed it beautifully into the bottom corner. Old Trafford erupted.
It felt like the game was finally in United’s hands.

But West Ham had other ideas.


Magassa’s First Goal Stuns Old Trafford

The Hammers pushed back with urgency, forcing United into panicked clearances.
Mazraoui even had to clear Bowen’s clever flick off the line to keep the lead alive.

Then the moment came.

In the 83rd minute, Soungoutou Magassa pounced — smashing home his first-ever goal for West Ham and shocking the home crowd.
Just like that… 1-1.
All United’s hard work undone in seconds.

Late chances for Mohamadou Kanté and Bruno Fernandes went begging, sealing another frustrating night for the Red Devils.

West Ham remain in the relegation zone, but this point might prove massive.
United, meanwhile, now have three draws in their last five games and still look far from convincing.
