West Ham vs Lyon LIVE: Europa League result and final score as Ndombele cancels out Bowen’s opener

West Ham 1-1 Lyon: Follow for reaction from the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final tie

Rice keeps fingers crossed, while Antonio shoves teammate as West Ham prepare for Lyon

Follow for live reaction after West Ham held Lyon to a 1-1 draw after playing the whole second half with 10 men following Aaron Cresswell’s red card to keep their Europa League quarter-final tie in the balance.

Cresswell was shown a straight red card for denying a goalscoring opportunity after he brought down Moussa Dembele on the stroke of half-time.

The dismissal lifted the Hammers and the hosts took the lead as Jarrod Bowen pounced on a loose touch from Jerome Boateng to fire West Ham in front.

But Tottenham Hotspur loanee Tanguy Ndombele silenced the London Stadium as he bundled in an equaliser midway through the second half.

It means West Ham’s hopes of progressing to the semi-final will come down to next week’s second leg in France, with Barcelona potentially waiting in the last four.

West Ham 1 - 1 Lyon

80 mins: It’s all Lyon. They maintain possession just outside West Ham’s box and pass it around quickly looking for an opening. Tete flicks the ball out to Emerson on the left side of the penalty area and the left-back brings it under control before booting a shot straight at Areola who clings onto it.

West Ham 1 - 1 Lyon

74 mins: West Ham are really having to dig in against Tete who is a force of nature on the right side for the visitors. They’ll feel as though they have to win this game with the amount of pressure they’ve been putting on the West Ham defence.

Fornals is back to dispossess the substitute this time and slots the ball up to Declan Rice. He threads it over the top to play Fredericks in down the right wing and his cross results in a West Ham corner.

GOAL! West Ham 1 - 1 Lyon (Ndombele, 66’)⚽️

66 mins: Lyon equalise! Peter Bosz makes two changes that sees Jerome Boateng and Romain Faivre taken off in place of Karl Toko Ekambi and Tete.

Tete gets stuck in immediately and goes on a fine run down the right side before driving into the box. He slots a pass into the six-yard area that Alphonse Areola tips away. Ryan Fredericks tries to control the ball but he’s off balance due to the deflection and can only tap it to Tanguy Ndombele who slots it into the open net.

West Ham 1 - 0 Lyon

63 mins: Chance! West Ham almost make it two! Bowen wrestles the ball away from Faivre and drives down the left wing on the break. He holds the ball to allow West Ham runners to catch up before sliding a curling pass into the box. It’s right in between Antonio and Lopes with both players sprinting towards the ball. Neither one gets to it and the ball flies through the middle of them and out to safety. A touch from Antonio there and it’s 2-0.

West Ham 1 - 0 Lyon

60 mins: There’s another break in play as Ryan Fredericks gets some treatment this time. He clashed heads with Moussa Dembele and stayed down.

It’s a lengthy check-up but the West Ham right-back is okay to play on. Lyon are preparing a change.

West Ham 1 - 0 Lyon

56 mins: That is Jarrod Bowen’s 14th goal of the season in all competitions, four more than any other West Ham player. He has scored two in two games since coming back from injury.

GOAL! West Ham 1 - 0 Lyon (Bowen, 52’)⚽️

52 mins: Incredible scenes! Michail Antonio receives a cleared ball and drives it up the pitch for West Ham. He loses it inside the box and asks for a penalty that doesn’t come. The Hammers recover the ball quickly after Anthony Lopes restarts play and Pablo Fornals drives it into the box. He threads the ball into the middle where Jerome Boateng fails to control it. The ball rolls over to the arriving Jarrod Bowen who guides it at goal. Boateng jumps in front of the shot but can only deflect it ove his own goalkeeper to give West Ham the lead!
