Mark Noble: ‘West Ham United win was written in the stars’

West Ham United midfielder Mark Noble has said that he was “proud” of his teammates after the Hammers staged a late comeback to see off Manchester United.

Slaven Bilic‘s men were trailing 2-1 with 14 minutes remaining before Michail Antonio and Winston Reid found the net to see the East London outfit end life at Upton Park in style.

Noble once again played a starring role in the centre of midfield and the skipper feels that the dramatic win for his team was “written in the stars”.

After the game, the 29-year-old told Sky Sports: “I think tonight was written in the stars. We scored three fantastic goals and it was pure determination and the will not to lose.

“We fought hard because Manchester United are a great team, they make you run a lot, but I am so proud of the players because they were phenomenal tonight.”
