"Jacob Murphy put Newcastle in front after just four minutes against West Ham - and barely 20 seconds after Jarrod Bowen had hit the post for West Ham in a frantic start to their Premier League clash. A matter of six minutes later, the disappointment for supporters continued at the London Stadium when they were denied a penalty by VAR after a spotkick was originally given following a foul on Bowen."
"The Hammers came into the game knowing they needed a fast start to get the crowd on board after a concerning run of three straight defeats under Nuno Espirito Santo. Star man Jarrod Bowen was unsurprisingly the man to be the driving force to hopes of a strong start and he almost made it happen when he fired a well-struck effort with his left foot which cannonned off the post."
Jacob Murphy scored for Newcastle after four minutes following Jarrod Bowen's shot hitting the post seconds earlier. Six minutes later West Ham believed they had a penalty when referee Robert Jones pointed to the spot for a foul on Bowen by Malick Thiaw, but Jones rescinded the decision after an on-pitch review determined Thiaw touched the ball. Newcastle's opener came when Murphy twisted past defenders and fired into the bottom corner. West Ham entered the match under pressure after three straight defeats under manager Nuno Espirito Santo. Another home defeat leaves West Ham 19th, six points from safety after ten games.
