Jaw-dropping European win
West Ham make Wolves look like cubs

WEST HAM ran out comprehensive winners of this keenly fought Premier league encounter with Wolves at the London Stadium.
It is a long time since West Ham have dominated a game to quite such a degree, with the visitors limited to a couple of meaningful shots.
The first goal arrived 17 minutes into the game, with Declan Rice passing out from the back to Michail Antonio, whose tangle with Wolves’ Willy Boly saw the resulting quickly taken free-kick swept wide by Pablo Fornals to Jarrod Bowen, who cut in beating one player before expertly placing his shot in the far left-hand corner.
