Happy Afternoon: Erster Sieg im achten Spiel

20' Free-kick to West Ham on the right ... Faubert to take, he puts it into the six-yard box, it's headed clear by Nosworthy but drops to Behrami (left & right) on the edge of the box, he drills a shot in low and it takes a wicked deflection off Jones and spins into the top left! 1-0 West Ham!
The Hammers should have been 2-up at the break, Bellamy broke, rounded the keeper and played in Behrami from four yards out with a virtually open net, only to see his shot rebound off the bar for one of the misses of the season.
90+3 That's it! West Ham win! Valon Behrami's first goal in English football gives the Londoners the win and Anton Ferdinand is disconsolate, losing against his former employers.
