West Ham United’s struggles in the league continued as the Hammers were held to a 3-3 draw by Brighton & Hove Albion.
And after their last week’s 0-2 loss to Liverpool FC, David Moyes decided to make three changes to his starting XI, including a first-team debut to the Hammers’ newest addition, Tomas Soucek. Michail Antonio and Ryan Fredericks returned to the starting XI following their respective injuries.
Issa Diop opened the scoring in the first half before Robert Snodgrass doubled West Ham’s lead. In the second half, the Seagulls scored through Angelo Ogbonna’s own-goal but Snodgrass’s second goal of the game put Hammers back on a two-goal lead. Unfortunately, two horrific defensive errors allowed Glen Murray and Pascal Gross to score and bring the visitors level.
And these West Ham fans reacted to the final scoreline and shared their thoughts on the team’s performance.
