Marcus Rashford placed his hands on his head in disbelief and looked to the touchline. Erik ten Hag stoically looked onward and did not move. David de Gea's face was buried in the turf and he wanted the London Stadium's pitch to swallow him.
His mistake was unexplainable and it cost Manchester United the game against West Ham. The players could not respond and their goalkeeper looked completely devoid of confidence or ability, just like against Sevilla where he was also at fault.
The players did not comfort De Gea after his blunder, which saw a shot so tame it was more like a pass trickle over his hands. It should have been a routine save and Said Benrahma did not expect the effort to find the net, nor did the West Ham fans.
