West Ham 4-2 Brentford
by Paul Donovan
at the London Stadium
WEST HAM got back to winning ways with this comprehensive demolition of Brentford at the London Stadium.
Jarrod Bowen was the star of the night, taking home the match ball after netting three times, while covering every blade of grass.
The home side didn’t waste any time, scoring via Bowen in the fourth and sixth minutes. The first goal came from a slick movement involving Tomas Soucek, Lucas Paqueta and Emerson, with Bowen firing home from the left side of the area.
