Rodriguez, 31, joined the East London club on a free transfer last summer after leaving Real Betis.
The Argentine has struggled for regular game time in England despite being a World Cup winner in 2022.
Since the arrival of manager Graham Potter, Rodriguez had only seen two minutes of action before the trip to Manchester.
His inclusion in the starting XI came as a surprise to fans but he justified his selection.
The midfielder helped West Ham end an eight-game winless run and leapfrog the Red Devils and Tottenham in the Premier League table.
After the match, he took to social media to celebrate the win and admitted that he was left crying at the achievement of a boyhood dream.
He included a number of pictures from his performance as well as a selfie of him teary-eyed.
He wrote: “It was about three months without playing… and after so much endurance and effort, today was a reward.
“Better days, worse days, and today I was able to let out what was inside me.
“Little Guido, who watched the Premier League and Old Trafford games at home on Sunday mornings, dreaming of being a soccer player one day, would be very proud of what he became, of what he achieved with his drive and dedication.
“Of how he enjoyed and continues to enjoy the process.
“Of how he cried after the game. And of how he continues to pursue and work for his dreams.”
Rodriguez received plenty of support from his West Ham team-mates as they flooded the comment section.
Club captain Jarrod Bowen wrote: “You deserve brother.”
Loan star Carlos Soler posted: “A great player, an impeccable professional, a tireless fighter, and, most importantly, a 10/10 person.”
Vladimir Coufal commented: “You were amazing today.”
Edson Alvarez said: “You are immense, brother.”
Luis Guilherme added: “You deserve it bro.”
West Ham ran out 2-0 winners over Ruben Amorim‘s side with Tomas Soucek and Bowen netting the goals.
Meanwhile, Rodriguez has been tipped to leave the Hammers this summer.
Reports have claimed he has had offers from former clubs River Plate, CF America and Betis.
