West Ham finished off their home games in their maiden season at the London Stadium in a rather awful fashion, falling short in a 4-0 defeat to Liverpool.
It was a big occasion for the Hammers, who wanted to finish the campaign in a strong fashion in front of their own supporters.
However, the Reds proved to be far too strong on the day and they came away with an incredibly convincing win after a mix of unstoppable attacking, awful officiating and embarrassing defending.
Daniel Sturridge gave Liverpool the lead in the first-half on his return to Jurgen Klopp’s starting line-up, before a goal from Philippe Coutinho from long range doubled the visitors’ advantage.
The Brazilian playmaker then made it three goals to the good after a lethal counter-attack stemmed from Gini Wijnaldum handling in the box.
Divock Origi was on hand to pounce late on, handing Liverpool a 4-0 win and West Ham yet another miserable home defeat.
