West Ham 0-1 Everton: Hammers’ Champions League hopes hit hard by loss

West Ham face a tough task to finish in the Premier League top four after Dominic Calvert-Lewin saw Everton run out winners at the London Stadium.

Calvert-Lewin's 24th-minute goal proved decisive against a Hammers side who huffed and puffed but never really hit their stride on a crucial afternoon, failing to register a single shot on target.

The closest West Ham came to an equaliser was when Vladimir Coufal's shot hit the post and Jarrod Bowen could not bundle in the rebound from point-blank range.

Everton hit the post late on through Josh King and they hung on for the win that keeps them in the frame for a European spot.
