West Ham United vs Manchester United

1. That is all from here tonight. Hope you enjoyed it and see you next time.

2. Elsewhere, Manchester City defeated Wigan 1-0, meaning United are currently 13 points clear at the top of the table.

3. The two sides produced a real, hard-fought encounter tonight. West Ham took the lead twice but were pegged back on both occasions. United went in search of a late winner but some top defending and some good goalkeeping kept the scores level.

   And there goes the full-time whistle.

   Taylor latches onto the end of a poor Carrick pass and looks to be through on goal. He is closed down by Vidic so attempts to shoot from distance but he blazes his effort well over the bar.

6. 91'

   Giggs finds Hernandez in the box. The striker looks like he is about to find the winner but Carroll of all people is there to make a vital challenge.

   Four minutes of injury time to be played...

   Van Persie flicks on Giggs' cross. Valencia tries to get the shot in but West Ham do well to close him down.

9. 89'

   Collison fires in a cross from the right and Carrick is there to get the block in. It seems to hit the United man's arm but the referee waves play on.

    Giggs picks up the ball on the left for United, but his first cross is poor and his second attempt is cleared by West Ham.

11. 86'

    Van Persie has a shot from well outside the box but he sends it high and wide.

12. 86'

    It is all United as we enter the final five minutes. Enough time for them to find a winner?

    Some lovely interplay between Rafael and Hernandez sees the Mexican eventually rifle an effort in on goal only for Collins to make an excellent block.

    Van Persie sends the corner in but West Ham do well to head clear.

    Have West Ham got it in them to take the lead for a third time? Or will United push on for another?

    <img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/subs.gif"> Hernandez comes on for United to replace Kagawa.

23. 77'

    A superb turn and shot from Kagawa on the edge of the box that hits one post and rolls along the line before hitting the other and bouncing out. Van Persie is there, however, to fire home the rebound.
