Eriksen drills a shot straight at Fabianski, after Toney laid the ball off to him on the edge of the box. The Danish midfielder had Rice charging his shot down, and the West Ham captain did enough to impact the former Tottenham man's effort.

There's a big chance for the hosts as Toney puts Mbeumo through on goal. However, Fabianski is alert and races out of his goal to take the ball off the toes of the Frenchman. The flag later goes up for offside anyway.
