Elsewhere in the fifth round of the night, fourth-tier side Grimsby beat Premier League contenders Southampton 2-1 and Burnley beat 10-man Fleetwood 1-0.

Manchester United, who made six substitutions in Sunday's Carabao Cup final against Newcastle, lacked fluidity in front of the expecting crowd at Old Trafford.

United goalkeeper David de Gea held off Michel Antonio midway through the opening half and the West Ham striker sprinted for goal before Emerson Palmieri fired a tempting shot inside the box.

United manager Eric ten Hag replaced Scott McTominay with Casemiro at half-time but the hosts struggled.

Benrahma cost them in the 54th minute when he spun the ball past De Gea after the home defender stopped, thinking it had gone wide for a throw-in.

The goal prompted the Ten Witches to bring in top scorer Marcus Rashford, but Antonio had a chance to double West Ham's lead but was again thwarted by De Gea.

In the 72nd minute, Casemiro scored with a header, and Bruno Fernandez's header from a free kick was ruled offside by VAR.

Five minutes later United equalized with a header from Naif Aqel's header from Fernandes' corner.

The home side remain on top of their six-year trophy drought at the weekend as they continue their search for a winner.

They were rewarded, with Argentine teenager Ganacho giving United the lead with a 90th-minute right-footed strike before Fred scored in stoppage time.

"The best teams never stop believing," Manchester United captain Harry Maguire told ITV, "I'm not saying we are by far one of the best teams.

"We've got a lot of work to do but we're getting there, we're moving forward ... it feels like Stretford has sucked in the goal at the last minute."

New Southampton manager Ruben Seles has made nine changes to his side for their home game against League Two Grimsby.

Gavan Holohan's double penalty before and after half-time gave the visitors a 2-0 lead and Grimsby kept the lead despite Duje Caleta-Car halving the deficit.

Benrahma cost them in the 54th minute when he spun the ball past De Gea after the home defender stopped, thinking it had gone wide for a throw-in.

The goal prompted the Ten Witches to bring in top scorer Marcus Rashford, but Antonio had a chance to extend West Ham's lead but was again thwarted by De Gea.

Casemiro had the ball in the net in the 72nd minute but his header from a Bruno Fernandes free-kick was ruled out for offside following a VAR review.

United finally drew level five minutes later when Fernandes sent in a corner and Nayef Aguerd headed into his own goal.

The home side -- still on a high after ending their six-year trophy drought at the weekend -- poured forward in search of a winner.

They got their reward when Argentine teenager Garnacho produced a superb right-footed curler in the 90th minute to edge United ahead followed by a stoppage-time strike by Fred.

"The best teams never stop believing," United captain Harry Maguire told ITV. "I am not saying we are one of the best teams yet.

"We have a lot to do but we are getting there, we are taking steps forward... It felt like the Stretford End was sucking the goal in at the end there."
