Lucas Paqueta's second-half goal earned West Ham United a 1-0 home win over Olympiakos on Thursday and kept them top of Europa League Group A.
Following their 2-1 loss to the Greeks a fortnight ago, West Ham retained top spot on nine points, level with Freiburg who crushed bottom side Backa Topola 5-0. Olympiakos are third with four points.
Paqueta broke the deadlock for the hosts in the 73rd minute following a fine James Ward-Prowse pass with a left-foot shot for his third goal in European competition this season which was confirmed after a VAR review for offside. On an off-night for the Brazilian, he still managed to score a brilliant winner.
Fans at the London Stadium held their breath as the visitors nearly equalised late in the game when Mady Camara's close-range header struck the post. David Moyes's side managed to hold on and get back to winning ways in Europe, keeping their first clean sheet in eight games in the process.
