Manchester United were frustrated yet again at Old Trafford as they could only draw 1-1 with West Ham on Sunday in the Premier League, with manager Jose Mourinho being sent to the stands in the first half.

West Ham went ahead early after Diafra Sakho escaped his marker to head home Dimitri Payet’s free-kick, but Zlatan Ibrahimovic netted a deserved equaliser for United midway through the first half.

Mourinho was then sent to the stands for reacting angrily to a Paul Pogba booking and watched from the dugout as his side dominated proceedings but failed to find a winner.

Both clubs provided their lineups ahead of kick-off:

Old Trafford was stunned after just 90 seconds when Sakho converted Payet’s free-kick from the right after Jesse Lingard’s foul on the Frenchman.

Sakho’s movement in the box was excellent before his powerful header past David de Gea, but Ibrahimovic was culpable for some poor marking, per the Manchester Evening News’ Samuel Luckhurst:

Watching replay again, Ibrahimovic’s ‘marking’ is a joke. Lingard will get flak for daft foul but Ibrahimovic cost #mufc again there.
