Jarrod Bowen’s goals in the first half gave West Ham their first league win in eight matches while stretching Everton’s winless run in the league to eight.

Erling Harland scored all the goals to get Manchester City a 3-0 win against Wolves.

ARSENAL 3-2 MANCHESTER UNITED

Arsenal came from a goal down to lead by a goal, lost their lead, and went on to get a 90th-minute goal to win the tie against Manchester United. Eddie Nketia scored two goals; one to equalize and the other to win the tie.

Edward Nketia’s first goal got Arsenal even on the scoreboard after Marcus Rashford gave Manchester United the lead. Edward Netiah’s second goal won the game in the 90th minute.
