Ings ends goal drought as West Ham deny Burnley in 2-2 draw
West Ham United's Danny Ings (centre) celebrates scoring their side's second goal of the game with team-mates

West Ham 2-2 Burnley
by Paul Donovan
at the London Stadium

WEST HAM were denied by a combination of bad luck and bad refereeing in this hard fought game against Burnley at the London Stadium.

A totally lacklustre first half saw the home team fall behind to a great strike from David Datro Fofana and an own goal from Konstantinos Mavropanos.

James Ward Prowse spurned one chance in front of goal.
