West Ham United recorded their first Premier League win of the season on Sunday afternoon with a 1-0 victory over Aston Villa at Villa Park.
Pablo Fornals’ second half strike gave David Moyes’ side not only their first league win of the season, but also their first goal, with Fornals’ shot deflecting off Ezri Konsa and ballooning over Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez before going in.
The win for the Irons moved them off the bottom of the Premier League table and out of the relegation zone, heading into a week that sees them have back-to-back London derbies against Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea. As West Ham picked up consecutive wins for the first time this season in all competitions, here are the talking points from a largely poor afternoon of football at Villa Park.
