Tom Cleverly gave an edge to the Red Devils over the Hammers right in the 23rd minute, but then it was the Hammers hitting the Devils really hard.

Collins was the man from the Hammers, who struck twice in the 27th and 59th minutes and gave Hammers a 2-1 edge over the Man United. From this time onwards both Sir Alexa dfn the Devils looks restless and were almost heading towards a defeat at the hands of the Hammers - had it not been Robin van Persie, who brilliantly controlled Giggs's lofted ball and rifled in for a much needed equalizer for his team.

So for the time being the Red Devils remain in the FA Cup by the skin of their teeth having denied West Ham a famous win.
