Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Follow the latest updates from the Premier League live as Manchester City travel to Bournemouth.

Pep Guardiola’s resources are depleted with Fernandinho and Aymeric Laporte both out injured, while Sergio Aguero has complained of exhaustion, but Gabriel Jesus and John Stones are both back and fully fit.

Bournemouth are struggling for form after such an impressive first half of the season, so a shock win against the champions would be a timely boost. Follow it live:

Kick-off fast approaching at the London Stadium.

The teams are in the tunnel. Chris Kavanagh is the referee this evening.

Newcastle get things underway among the bubbles.

A good start from Javier Hernandez, Jamaal Lascelles tripping the Mexican after allowing the ball to bounce and seeing Hernandez steal in.

Robert Snodgrasss to deliver from near the left angle of the box.

2 minutes

Snodgrass and Felipe Anderson try to work a tappy free kick, but by the time Anderson has returned the ball to Snodgrass the Newcastle wall has closed a space that looked considerably less than ten yards to two, and blocks the delivery.

A waste.

Ryan Fredericks gets beyond Matt Ritchie on the left of Newcastle's back five after a clever outside-of-the-boot pass from Mark Noble, but the full-back can't link up with Javier Hernandez in the middle.

It has been a strong start for West Ham with Fredericks and Robert Snodgrass combining particularly effectively on the right.

Newcastle sitting deep with their back-five and Isaac Hayden and Sean Longstaff a relatively defensive shield in front.

4-2-3-1 for West Ham, with Manuel Lanzini at number ten.

Mark Noble wins the first corner of the evening.

GOAL! West Ham 1-0 Newcastle (Declan Rice, 7 minutes)

​Rice rises, Rice scores!

Robert Snodgrass curls the in swinger to the six yard box, Martin Dubravka doesn't come, Fabian Schar loses his man and the West Ham defensive midfielder Rice and simply heads home.

West Ham have proved very dangerous from set-pieces in recent weeks, with plenty of movement and clever lines of running utilised to create space for others. Rice found a space, Snodgrass found him and the hosts take a deserved early lead.

Newcastle need to settle into their stride a little.

Rafa Benitez passes some messages on to Matt Ritchie as the wing-back prepares to take a throw.
