West Ham United now sit two points clear at the top of Group B in the Europa Conference League after a 3-2 win over Silkeborg in Denmark on Thursday night.
First-half goals from Manuel Lanzini (penalty), Gianluca Scamacca and Craig Dawson gave David Moyes’ side three points, despite going behind early on through Kasper Kusk. Soren Tengstedt’s second-half goal proved to be nothing more than a consolation.
A goalless draw between FCSB and Anderlecht in the group’s other game of the night meant that the Hammers now have a healthy lead at the top of their group, heading into a doubleheader with Belgian side Anderlecht next month. Here are the talking points from the Hammers’ second trip to Denmark in three weeks.
