Brent Rahim gave an impressive
goalscoring performance for West Ham reserves on Tuesday
evening - but couldn't prevent a 2-1 defeat at the hands of
Leicester City.
Says coach Roger Cross: "Brent scored a great goal from 30 yards and also hit the crossbar - and Laurent Courtois hit the post.
"We had plenty of chances and I felt we were in control - we had a lot of the ball.
"Their equaliser, which came in injury time at the end of the first half, was disappointing, but we played well.
"The performance was encourging - we had a lot of of chances but didn't get the breaks.
Team: Forde, Johnson, Labant, Rahim, Iriekpen, Ward, Byrne, McCann, Defoe, Garcia, Courtois.
