West Ham earned their first victory of the season and inflicted Everton’s first defeat by virtue of a more coherent 4-3-3 system and stellar performances from Pedro Obiang, Declan Rice, Felipe Anderson, Marko Arnautovic and Andriy Yarmolenko in particular. Everton made plenty of chances but without a properly first rate centre-forward they will never join the elite. Too many gaps at the back, particularly through the inside-forward channels, destroyed them.
GOAL Everton 1-3 West Ham (61 mins)
The two-goal lead is restored! Pedro Obiang and Marko Arnautovic link up nicely for the latter to poke in#EVEWHU
