MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Manchester United laboured but moved into the top four of the Premier League with a last second goal from Marcus Rashford earning them a 1-0 win over West Ham United at Old Trafford on Saturday.

Everton began life after Rafa Benitez in much the same manner as they ended it -- in defeat -- a 1-0 loss at home to Aston Villa leaving them in 16th place, just four points above the relegation zone.

Martial collected from Cristiano Ronaldo and fed Cavani who slipped a low ball across to the back post where Rashford converted. Emiliano Buendia scored the decisive goal, just before halftime, with a header that looped over keeper Jordan Pickford and the celebrations led to a bottle being launched from the stands and hitting the Villa players.

Despite continuing in the ascendancy after the break Leeds, without injured striker Patrick Bamford, could not find a breakthrough, and their inability to make the pressure pay proved costly as Shelvey squeezed a free-kick home.
