Manchester United are leading West Ham United 2-0 at half time at Old Trafford this afternoon, thanks to first-half goals from Danny Welbeck and Adnan Januzaj.
United could have taken the lead in the opening minutes of the game as Tom Cleverley picked up the ball in a central position inside the box, but his effort was kept out by a fine save from the diving Adrian.
Wayne Rooney looked menacing from the start and played in Januzaj, whose shot was well blocked by the West Ham defence.
Jonny Evans made a fine interception as the visitors looked to create their first chance, with the United defender getting across to block Mohamed Diame, who left his foot in the defender's back much to the dismay of manager David Moyes.
United continued to dominate and Phil Jones almost found their opener as he fired towards the bottom corner, although Adrian did well again to get down low to make the save.
Former United man Ravel Morrison was lucky to still be on the pitch after he swiped Cleverley's legs away, but he was only dealt a yellow card by the referee.
The hosts grabbed the lead they deserved in the 26th minute as Welbeck pulled off a fine one-two with Rooney, before drilling the ball past Adrian in the West Ham goal.
United doubled their lead 10 minutes later; this time Welbeck fed Januzaj inside the box, with the youngster rifling a shot into the bottom corner.
