Winston Reid scored the final-ever goal at Upton Park as West Ham United said goodbye to their iconic stadium with a 3-2 win over Manchester United.

Anthony Martial scored twice for the visitors to hand United the lead, but a late push from the Hammers ensured the fans could say goodbye to the ground with a win. The result keeps West Ham alive in the race for a UEFA Europa League spot, while United will need help to grab a UEFA Champions League ticket on the final matchday.

Three points for the Irons also meant Arsenal are secure of a spot at European football's top table next season; it's the 19th campaign in a row in which the Gunners have qualified for the UEFA Champions League.

Recap

LONDON, ENGLAND - MAY 10:  Winston Reid of West Ham United (obscured) celebrates with team mates and fans as he scores their third goal during the Barclays Premier League match between West Ham United and Manchester United at the Boleyn Ground on May 10,

The Red Devils and West Ham served up a thrilling final match at Upton Park, with both teams needing a win to keep their respective European dreams alive.

The hosts started the match in excellent form, feeding off the energy the home crowd put into the stadium, and Diafra Sakho opened the score after just 10 minutes following a superb run from Manuel Lanzini.

Andy Carroll should have made it 2-0 after Daley Blind played him onside, but the former Liverpool man fired a shot straight at David De Gea. Bleacher Report UK thought the United faithful couldn’t have enjoyed the first 20 minutes:

Michail Antonio thought he had doubled his team’s lead after he headed home a cross from close range, but the linesman judged the ball to have gone out of play before the cross came and chalked off the goal.

It was a minor miracle West Ham were up by just a single goal heading into half-time, and ESPN FC’s Alex Shaw thought the first half was yet another example of why United manager Louis van Gaal’s time with the team should come to an end:

But the visitors came out of the dressing room with renewed energy, matching West Ham’s intensity in midfield and hitting the hosts with pace. Star youngster Martial tied things up just six minutes into the second half.

Both teams had their chances to take the lead, but while the hosts wasted their opportunities, United always looked the more dangerous side on the counter-attack. After 72 minutes, Wayne Rooney played Martial in on the left side, and the youngster worked the ball past goalkeeper Darren Randolph with a bit of luck.

More from Shaw:

With just 18 minutes left to play, United seemed primed to grab the win and pass rivals Manchester City in the standings, but West Ham weren’t finished. Antonio finally got his goal with a headed effort after 76 minutes, and momentum once again shifted toward the Hammers.

And just a few minutes later, Reid scored the final-ever goal at Upton Park, another header De Gea perhaps should have saved. Former United defender Rio Ferdinand thought it was his old team’s own fault for giving away so many opportunities to cross the ball:

As shared by the Premier League's official Twitter account, Hammers manager Slaven Bilic understood the significance of the win after the match:

The win sees West Ham move up to sixth place in the standings, one point behind United and two ahead of Southampton. Liverpool still have a match in hand, and if the Reds beat Chelsea on Wednesday, they too will stay alive in the race for a Europa League ticket.

The Red Devils will enter the final matchday two points behind rivals City in the battle for the final UEFA Champions League ticket.
