Before Andre Ayew who came on from the bench for Javier Hernandez in the 64 minute pounced on a loose ball to give the Hammers their 2nd goal in the 79th minute in what stood as the match winner.

The win has given West Ham United their first victory of the 2017-18 season, after having gone through a torrid time of losing the first three games of the season.

Slaven Bilic must be a happy man since the victory would definitely buy time for him, since his job was on the line after failing to churn out the results in all his first three games.
