Alex Telles – 5. Awful start and well beaten in build-up to first goal. Poor in the first half. Hard for players like him to perform after no games, but equally he won’t be getting another start for a while on that performance. AFP

Nemanja Matic – 5. The captain drove forward after 15 and set up Martial. Kneed Coufal after 57 and got away with it. Had a taste for it as he left his foot in another rival. Fortunate not to be cautioned. PA

Donny Van de Beek – 6. Nowhere for the first goal as he didn’t see the goalscorer Lanzini. Got the chance he wanted but his performances divide fans between those who think he’s an intelligent solution to any United midfield issues and those who consider him of limited value to the team. AFP

Jesse Lingard – 7. Best player in first half and tested Areola from distance after 26. Before that, he’d been pulled back by shirt and shorts inside the area by Noble but no penalty was given. Couldn’t repeat weekend heroics and was brought off as West Ham won at Old Trafford for the first time since 2007. AFP

WEST HAM PLAYER RATINGS: Alphonse Areola – 8. Didn’t look anywhere near Mata’s curling strike that hammered the bar, but his flying leap was spectacular. Forced into a good save to keep out a dipping effort from Lingard before denying Greenwood with a smart block, but not tested anywhere near as much as he should have been considering that the wasteful hosts had 27 shots.

Andriy Yarmolenko, 8 - Beat Telles for power and pace in an early duel which revealed a weakness that the visitors looked to exploit at every opportunity.

More assured after the break and provided another vital experienced head. Getty Images

Manchester United v West Ham player ratings: Lingard 7, Martial 4; Yarmolenko 8, Lanzini 7

Hammers earn 1-0 win at Old Trafford to book meeting with Manchester City in League Cup last 16

Manchester United crashed out of the League Cup as West Ham avenged their painful loss to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side with a 1-0 win at Old Trafford on Wednesday.

The Hammers suffered a gut-wrenching 2-1 defeat against United in the Premier League on Sunday when David De Gea saved Mark Noble's stoppage-time penalty after Jesse Lingard's late winner.

Trophy 'hunt will keep going' says Solskjaer, as Manchester United exit cup

But David Moyes' men got a measure of revenge three days later as Manuel Lanzini's first half goal dumped United out in the third round.

Solskjaer made 11 changes and Moyes opted for 10 alterations, with West Ham's understudies making the most of their moment in the spotlight.

Ryan Fredericks ghosted past Alex Telles and cut back for Lanzini to sweep past United goalkeeper Dean Henderson in the ninth minute.

That was enough for Moyes to secure a first win over United since they sacked the Scot after less than a season in charge in 2014.

It was also West Ham's first victory at Old Trafford since 2007, earning them a home tie against holders Manchester City in the last 16.

In the photo gallery above, Andy Mitten and Liam Wheeler have provided their player ratings for Manchester United and West Ham respectively.
