Enzo Maresca spoke to the BBC: “Today was a tough game especially mentally. When West Ham come here and sit back with 10 players behind the ball, it’s not easy, so you have to be mentally strong and you need to be patient.

“We had more than 10 shots in the first half. We had clear chances in the first half but unfortunately, we missed the target. With some changes the game completely changed. Overall we completely deserved to win the game.”

“Robert [Sanchez] needs rest and Filip [Jorgensen] was very good.”
