Premier League Round-Up: Sesko Rescues Carrick’s Unbeaten Run as Spurs Plunge Into Crisis

A dramatic night of Premier League action on Tuesday saw Manchester United salvage a late point at West Ham, while Tottenham Hotspur plummeted further down the table, leaving manager Thomas Frank facing an uncertain future.

Sesko Strikes Late to Save United in East London

Michael Carrick’s perfect start as Manchester United manager finally met a roadblock at the London Stadium. After four consecutive victories, the Red Devils relied on a 96th-minute equalizer from Benjamin Sesko to escape with a 1-1 draw against a resilient West Ham side.

Key Moments:

• The Breakthrough: After a cagey first half, Tomas Soucek put the Hammers ahead in the 50th minute, expertly converting a low cross from Jarrod Bowen.

• The Fightback: United struggled to break through Nuno Espirito Santo’s compact 4-5-1 formation. However, deep into stoppage time, Bryan Mbeumo delivered a pinpoint ball for Sesko, who flicked his finish into the top corner.

• The Record: Sesko’s goal at 95:11 is the latest result-altering goal West Ham has ever conceded at home in the Premier League.

The result keeps United in fourth place, while West Ham moves within two points of safety.
