West Ham United – Manchester United

1. West Ham United without a home win, Manchester United without a host of stars. Join us at 16.05 GMT for live commentary

2. Depleted Manchester United began life without David Beckham at Upton Park. He was joined on the sidelines by close friend Gary Neville, who did not travel because of a thigh injury.

3. United were boosted by the return of Wes Brown, following a three-month lay-off with an ankle injury.

4. Glenn Roeder's team showed two changes with French duo Sebastien Schemmel and Edouard Cisse replacing the dropped Tomas Repka and Steve Lomas (ankle)

5. 1'

   West Ham get the game underway

6. 2'

   Solskjaer attempts a cross from the right, but fails to find a white shirt

7. 3'

   Van Nistelrooy comes forward and plays in Solskjaer on the left. The Norwegian striker tries to play the return ball but again it's a poor pass

8. 4'

   The ball breaks to Scholes 25 yards out and he tries the first time shot which is going well wide, before deflecting off Solskjaer for the goal-kick

9. 5'

   Di Canio tries a cross-shot but Barthez is equal to it

10. 6'

    An entertaining start, this time Veron firing well wide

11. 7'

    Veron goes in late on Defoe on the box, the West Ham players appeal for the penalty but there's no dice. Veron wafts the imaginary yellow card for diving

12. 8'

    Solskjaer comes forward on the left, but once again the pass, this time to Giggs, is woeful

13. 9'

    Di Canio twists and turns on the right, before his progressed his halted by a push from Silvestre. Free-kick

14. 10'

    Van Nistelrooy has the ball on the edge of the box. He has options on either side but opts to go forward himself and is robbed

15. 11'

    Carrick fells Fortune, free-kick to Manchester United

16. 12'

    Veron plays a neat ball through the centre to Van Nistelrooy. It's a great chance and the Dutchman's first time shot nestles in the back of the net

17. 13'

    Oh no... hang on... the linesman's flag is up for offside against Van Nistelrooy. The goal won't stand, a correct decision - he was about five yards off

18. 14'

    Cole shows good skill on the right and crosses in for Defoe, but O'Shea does brilliantly to get to the ball first and knock it over the bar from just a couple of yards out

19. 15'

    Defoe bursts forward in centre field. Di Canio is in acres of space on the left, but Defoe waits too long and by the time the pass is playe Di Canio has run offside

20. 16'

    Di Canio beats Blanc just inside the box and crosses for Defoe, but it's just too high for the England Under-21 international

21. 17'

    Veron finds Solskjaer just inside the box but goes down under the challenge of Winterburn. No penalty

22. 18'

    A very even start to this game, with chances at both ends

23. 19'

    Van Nistelrooy makes progress down the right and plays a square ball to the onrushing Veron, but it's played just behind the Argentinian and he can't get the ball under control

24. 20'

    Sinclair delivers from the right and Cole gets up with a giant leap and powers the ball goalwards, Barthez makes a despairing dive....

25. 21'

    ...Cole's towering header crashes off the left-hand post and falls to Defoe who has the simple task of walking the ball into the back of the net

26. 22'

    But the flag goes up for offside again, against Defoe, and now both sides have a goal disallowed, and rightly so

27. 23'

    Scholes plays a fine ball over the top to Van Nistelrooy. James comes rushing out but the striker gets to the ball first...

28. 24'

    ...Van Nistelrooy hooks the ball ove James but before he can apply the finish Pearce hacks it behind

29. 25'

    Veron takes the corner from the left and Solskjaer rises first, but his header flies over the bar

30. 26'

    Di Canio's perseverance win a free-kick on the left flank. It's as good as a corner. Th Italian takes it himself but Veron heads clear

31. 27'

    Di Canio finds space on the right and crosses for Sinclair, but he's penalised for a push on O'Shea

32. 28'

    Brown is caught ball watching by Defoe, but luckily for him Defoe's header fails to find a team-mate

33. 29'

    Di Canio cuts in frmo the right menacingly but soon there's four Man Utd players on him. He goes down theatrically after brushing past Scholes - no free-kick

34. 30'

    Giggs tries a shot from just outside the area, it lacks power and James can easily claim low down to his left

35. 31'

    Veron fouls Defoe 25 yards out and that's a free-kick to the Hammers in a dangerous position

36. 32'

    Di Canio floats the free-kick into the masked Sinclair, only for his back header to go harmlessley wide of the upright

37. 33'

    Defoe shoots from just outside the area, and it takes a deflection for a corner

38. 34'

    Di Canio takes the corner and Barthez comes out to punch. It's a poor attempt but Giggs is there to hack the ball away

39. 35'

    O'Shea finds himself in an advanced position on the right. He crosses but Scholes and Solskjaer both go for it and the chance is wasted. Too many cooks

40. 36'

    Fortune knocks Cole to the floor and that's a free-kick in centre field

41. 37'

    Solskjaer has the ball inside the box on the left. He has to stretch to get the cross in and he finds Van Nistelrooy...

42. 38'

    GOAL!!!!!

43. 39'

    Van Nistelrooy beats James to the ball and lifts it over the England stopper and into the back of the net. A hint of offside, but he was level, and a class finish

44. 40'

    Van Nistelrooy bags only his second Premiership goal from open play of the season. It's the same old story for the Hammers, and they don't deserve to be behind

45. 41'

    James comes out to clear on the edge of his box. His clearance hits O'Shea and the ball falls back to Solskjaer. James is nowhere and it's a gaping goal...

46. 42'

    ...but Solskjaer fires his first-time shot wide of the right-hand post. He had time, should have done better and doubled the advantage

47. 43'

    West Ham coming back strongly now, looking to be on level terms at the break

48. 44'

    O'Shea again finds himself in the final third of the field. He plays a square pass to Van Nistelrooy on the penalty spot who blazes his shot over the bar

49. 45'

    One minute of stoppage time to be played

50. 45'

    And there goes the half-time whistle

51. 45'

    A very even 45 minutes, with both sides having a goal disallowed. It's Ruud Van Nistelrooy's goal that's the difference between the sides - some work for Glenn Roeder to do

52. 46'

    Manchester United get the second period started

53. 47'

    Cisse crosses into the box from the right but the flag goes up for offside against Defoe

54. 48'

    The second begins much the same as the first, a very even contest

55. 49'

    Giggs plays the ball in to Van Nistelrooy on the penalty spot. He lays the ball off for Scholes on the edge of the D...

56. 50'

    ...but Scholes drags his shot just wide of the left-hand post

57. 51'

    West Ham are struggled to make an impression in the final third of the field. A lot for Glenn Roeder to think about

58. 52'

    Giggs cuts across the edge of the box before bursting into the box. He heads for the by-line and looks to cross, before hilariously fluffing his kick

59. 53'

    Schemmel crosses from the right and Scholes makes a hash of his clearance. There's a scramble in the area but eventually United get the ball away

60. 54'

    Cole plays the ball through the centre to Defoe but the flag is up once again

61. 55'

    Defoe and Sinclair link up well on the right, Sinclair tries the neet back heel but Defoe fails to read it and that's a goal-kick

62. 56'

    Defoe wins a corner and West Ham begin to build up the pressure. Carrick tries a shot from just outside the area, that takes a deflection and it's another corner

63. 57'

    Sinclair flicks on the ball at the near post but Defoe can't get there ahead of Defoe

64. 58'

    This time Di Canio falls foul of the linesman's flag

65. 59'

    Man United playing keep ball, looking to take the sting out of West Ham's push for the leveller

66. 60'

    Fortune is fouled by a Cole-Carrick sandwich. Free-kick

67. 61'

    Solskjaer finds Giggs in space on the left flank. He puts in a deep cross and Scholes just can't get on the end of it

68. 62'

    Schemmel does well to win a corner off Silvestre. Di Canio delivers from the right...

69. 63'

    Sinclair and Cole link up and it's the latter who tries a volley from the edge of the area, which flies miles over the bar

70. 64'

    Cole goes down, doesn't win the decision, so then takes out Blanc and gives away the free-kick

71. 65'

    Cole is felled by Silvestre. Free-kick to the Hammers

72. 66'

    Giggs sprays the ball right for Solskjaer. He comes into the area and fires in a shot which goes across the face of goal and wide

73. 67'

    Now it's West Ham in attack. Di Canio plays the ball to Defoe in the area. Barthez comes rushing out and Defoe lifts it over him...

74. 68'

    ...Defoe's excellent effort bounces off the top of the bar and behind. So close to the leveller for West Ham

75. 69'

    Corner to an United. Giggs delivers from the right but O'Shea just fails to get the flick on

76. 70'

    Carricks plays a slide rule pass through to Defoe. He's through again...

77. 71'

    ...Barthez makes the save, but the flag had gone up for offside anyway

78. 72'

    Dailly brushes Giggs off the ball but the referee rules the challenge was too strong. Free-kick to Man United just over 30 yards out

79. 73'

    Veron lines up the free-kick in the absence of Beckham. He tries the shot...

80. 74'

    ...but his effort just agonisingly wide of James' right-hand post

81. 75'

    Now Veron is brought down by Cisse just in the West Ham half

82. 76'

    Cole looks to out-run Fortune bt he's tugged back. That's a yellow card for the South African international

83. 77'

    Another free-kick for West Ham after an Nistelrooy fouled Di Canio just outside the area on the left. Good chance here

84. 78'

    Di Canio takes the free-kick himself and Fortune heads the ball behind for a corner, which comes to nothing

85. 79'

    Schemmel and Giggs clash heads and both need a bit of attention from the physios

86. 80'

    Still no substitutions in the game, as former West Ham trainee Kieran Richardson warms up

87. 81'

    Cisse is winded in a challenge with Scholes, but doesn't need treatment

88. 82'

    Giggs sprints forward, but is caught from behind just as he reached the edge of the D. That's a yellow card for Cisse, which means he now misses the home game with Southampton

89. 83'

    Giggs takes the free-kick himself, but it deflects off the wall for a corner

90. 84'

    Veron delivers the corner from the left, but Sinclair heads to safety

91. 85'

    Defoe nips past Veron into the box, he tries to square the ball for Di Canio, but the Italian can't get there in time and the chance is gone

92. 86'

    Sinclair lays the ball off to Cole on the edge of the area, but he gets his shot and it goes way over the bar

93. 86'

    Carrick comes forward and does brilliantly, using his strength to get into the area. He slips the ball to Di Canio who does well to find Defoe on the penalty spot...

94. 86'

    GOAL!!!!!

95. 87'

    Defoe's finish was sublime, easing the ball past Barthez with the outside of his right boot from eight yards out. The Hammers are level!

96. 88'

    It was very, very close for offside against Defoe there. The decision could have gone either way - has Glenn Roeder's Upton Park luck finally turned?

97. 89'

    West Ham pressing for the winner now

98. 90'

    Cole does well, lifts the ball over Fortune then goes down looking for the foul, no free-kick

99. 90'

    Two minutes to be added

100. 91'

     The ball suddenly breaks loose in the West Ham box and Solskjaer picks up the loose ball, he's through on goal...

101. 92'

     ...James makes the save with his feet and the ball goes behind. Maybe he should have squared the ball for Van Nistelrooy

102. 92'

     Free-kick to Manchester United on the right. Giggs delivers, O'Shea heads towards goal and James makes the dive...

103. 92'

     ...James makes a fine save, but the ball goes up in the air off his glove and Blanc and Van Nistelrooy are both waiting for opportunity...

104. 93'

     ...somehow Van Nistelrooy misses the ball with his header from a yard out - he only had to get the merest of touches - and the ball drops back into the hands of James

105. 93'

     And there goes the final whistle

106. 93'

     A draw was probably the correct result, but Sir Alex Ferguson will look back on those two chances at the death and shake his head
