West Ham secures crucial win over Bournemouth to boost Premier League survival hopes, as they thrash their fellow relegation battlers at the Vitality Stadium.
The Hammers took an early lead through Michael Antonio’s header from a corner, before Lucas Paqueta scored another header to make it 2-0 just 12 minutes in. Declan Rice then smashed in a third just before half-time, with substitute Pablo Fornals completing the rout with an acrobatic effort from a cross.
The win moves West Ham up to 13th in the table and six points clear of the drop zone, while Bournemouth remains in 15th place.
