Manchester United drew 1-1 against West Ham, ending their four-match winning streak. The fans' claim of getting a haircut if the team won five matches in a row has also been postponed for now.
In the 26th week of the Premier League, Manchester United drew 1-1 away against West Ham. The Red Devils' four-match winning streak came to an end, while an interesting claim from a fan has been temporarily put on hold.
LAST-MINUTE EQUALIZER
In the match played at the London Olympic Stadium, the home team West Ham took the lead with a goal from Tomas Soucek in the 50th minute. Manchester United equalized with a goal from Benjamin Sesko in the 90+6th minute.
The goal scored by the Red Devils' Casemiro in the 63rd minute was disallowed for offside after a VAR review.
FOUR-MATCH STREAK ENDS
With this result, the four-match winning streak achieved under Michael Carrick came to an end. Manchester United increased their points to 45, while West Ham remained at 24 points. In the next week of the league, Manchester United will go to Everton away. West Ham will host Bournemouth.
FAN'S CLAIM POSTPONED
Meanwhile, Manchester United fan Frank Illet's claim that he would not cut his hair until the team won five matches in a row had also made headlines. With United's streak stopping at four matches, Illet's hair cutting plan has been postponed. It was stated that the fan would not be able to cut his hair until at least March 20.
In the 2022-23 season, under Erik ten Hag, Manchester United had achieved a five-match winning streak by defeating Fulham, Nottingham Forest, Wolverhampton, Bournemouth, and Manchester City. The Red Devils, who have also achieved similar streaks in subsequent seasons, have recently struggled to create a consistent winning chain.
