  1. GREAT SAVE!published at 21 mins

    West Ham 1-0 Newcastle

    Newcastle so close to a leveller. 

    Daryl Janmaat breaks down the right and squares it to Georginio Wijnaldum, who fortuitously bundles past two defenders into the penalty area. Janmaat takes the ball off his feet and, with just Darren Randolph to beat, his shot hits the keeper's legs.

  2. Get it to Victor!published at 20 mins

    West Ham 1-0 Newcastle

    West Ham debutant Victor Moses (number 20 in the graphic below) has only one thought in his mind so far - attack.

    He's been by far his side's most advanced player.

  3. CLOSE!published at 19 mins

    West Ham 1-0 Newcastle

    Sublime stuff from Victor Moses as he pops the ball through Daryl Janmaat's legs, cuts inside the penalty area, and squares the ball to Diafra Sakho inside the penalty area. With his back to goal, he pulls the ball back to Dimitri Payet who scuffs a weak shot wide.

    Dimitri Payet curls it in but the cross is poor and Newcastle clear. The hosts will be relieved he showed better quality for his goal.

    West Ham 1-0 Newcastle

    Don't forget Newcastle's players were made to walk the last mile to the Boleyn Ground this evening after the team bus was forced to park up due to traffic. They have started like they haven't recovered...

    West Ham have a free-kick on the left edge of the penalty area. The big men will fill the box...

    Andrew Neill:, external Anita has one job tonight which is to keep Payet quiet. Nowhere near him for the goal. Bring on De Jong for him and have a go.

    Serge Tchwenko:, external Newcastle looking lost at sea defensively. Three players free on the edge of the box, nobody closing them down. Poor.

    Ashley Wilkinson:, external Stunning finish Payet. How has a top five club not taken a punt on him this summer? He's that good.

    West Ham 1-0 Newcastle

    The Hammers have had a bizarrely mixed start to the season but if things stay as they are, they'll be fifth after five games. Can't argue with that.

    West Ham 1-0 Newcastle

    Dimitri Payet hasn't made a bad start to life at the Hammers has he? Since signing from Marseille for £10.5m in the summer he has had a hand in three West Ham goals this season - scoring two. Have a look at the goal below...

    "What a wonderful finish - it was a lovely side-footed shot and he just bent it into the corner.

    "Mark Noble did brilliantly to lay it across and the weight on the ball was perfect. That opened it up for Payet and it was a wonderfully crisp shot."

    GOAL - West Ham 1-0 Newcastlepublished at 9 mins

    Dimitri Payet

    A stunning start.

    A flowing move down the left sees Mark Noble square the ball to Dimitri Payet and, from 18 yards, he unerringly sidefoots the ball into the top corner. A beautiful finish.

    A cheer goes up from the away fans as Moussa Sissoko earns Newcastle a corner. The cross comes in from Florian Thauvin but it doesn't miss the front man and is cleared.

    You wouldn't mess with Slaven Bilic would you? The West Ham boss has that menacing look on his face as he growls out some early instructions. Still cagey stuff.

    "This is quite a big game for both sides and a win for either will make a big difference to how their season is looked at so far."

    "In certain games Newcastle have shown a bit of spirit but it will be interesting to see how ambitious they will be today. Will they sit back and just go for a draw?"
