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.
