West Ham United vs Everton LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction

Jarrod Bowen scored twice as West Ham United beat fellow strugglers Everton 2-0 at the London Stadium, taking all three points in a match billed as a “must-win” for both teams.

The defeat - Everton’s sixth in their last seven league games - will add to the pressure on manager Frank Lampard, while for West Ham boss David Moyes, victory will be sweet relief after his side took just one point from the last 21 available.

Bowen scored his goals in a seven-minute first-half spell, first netting from close range after Emerson Palmieri’s cross was flicked into his path. He was set up for his second by good work on the right wing by Michail Antonio, whose cross was timed perfectly for the incoming forward.

It is more misery for Everton fans, who had a sit-in protest at Goodison Park last weekend following defeat to Southampton, calling for the club’s board to be sacked. Those calls will likely grow louder in the coming days.

Everton are running out of ideas in the final third. Calvert-Lewin has been a spectator in the middle for the majority of the contest.

West Ham have taken the sting out of the Everton response in the second half. The Toffees had a decent spell of pressure, but failed to work Fabianski.

West Ham are playing on the counter. There is space for the Hammers to exploit with Bowen and Antonio, but they need to make it count.
