Luiz swings over a corner from the left which strays too close to Areola, who gathers it near his back post and then attempts to start off a quick West Ham counter.

MISS! Watkins heads clear at the near post after West Ham change the angle from a corner on the right, then the home side build again and Bowen beats Moreno down the left and delivers a cross for an unmarked Benrahma. The latter gets his attempt all wrong though, and volleys it several feet over the crossbar - another decent chance spurned!
