Duel between disappointing and poorly ranked teams this evening. As part of the 21st day of the Premier League, West Ham hosted Nottingham Forest in the hope of catching up with their direct opponent for maintenance. Only, three days after offering their first success of the season to Wolverhampton, the red lantern, the Hammers experienced another very difficult evening to endure.
A goal from Murillo against his camp (13th) had launched the Londoners perfectly, saved several times by a spectacular Areola. The former PSG goalkeeper ended up bowing to Dominguez (55th) and before being at the origin of the penalty whistled against his team at the end of the match. The mistake is unfortunate and subject to several hazards, but above all it allows Gibbs-White to offer victory to the Reds (1-2, 89th) and 7 points ahead of his opponent of the day, first relegated and more than ever in great danger. The future of Nuno Espirito Santos could well be written elsewhere after this 10th match without a victory.
