Wayne Rooney ended his five-month wait for a goal as he set Manchester
United on their way to a comfortable Premier League win over West
Ham.
Rooney's 33rd-minute penalty after Jonathan Spector had fouled
Ryan Giggs will hardly enter his personal haul of fame. But it ends
the talk of his scoring drought and should go some way to easing
the 24-year-old back to top form after a slow start to the season.
Second-half efforts from Nani and Dimitar Berbatov, who took his
tally to three in four games, sealed victory to keep United in touch
with early pace-setters Chelsea. But for West Ham, the international
break only provides further opportunity to worry. |
