- West Ham United winger Robert Snodgrass was devastated to concede an injury time equaliser on Saturday
- The Hammers came from behind to lead West Bromwich Albion 2-1
- But substitute Jonny Evans popped up four minutes into stoppage time though to spoil the party at London Stadium
Robert Snodgrass was left devastated after West Ham United conceded a stoppage time equaliser against West Bromwich Albion on Saturday at London Stadium.
The Hammers had fought back from a goal down to lead 2-1 but, four minutes into time added on, substitute Jonny Evans popped up at the back post to find the back of the net from a corner.
It was tough on Slaven Bilic’s side who had dominated throughout, and Snodgrass also was left frustrated as a number of decisions went against the hosts.
He said: “It’s disappointing. It’s obviously a devastating way to lose a goal, so late on, but that’s part and parcel of football.
“The lads did feel as though there was a foul in there for the goal, so that’s frustrating.
“But some you get and some you don’t and we’ll pick ourselves up and go again. It’s moments like that that change games, and it’s gone against us today.”
Sofiane Feghouli levelled the game just after the hour mark, tapping home from close range after Manuel Lanzini had his shot tipped onto the crossbar by Ben Foster to cancel out Nacer Chadli’s opener.
And the Hammers’ Argentine jewel was again the main man when, with just four minutes left, he fired in from range to give his side the lead, prompting Snodgrass to praise his teammate.
“Lanzini is terrific and he’s a game changer,” the Scot continued. “We need to always get him on the ball in those areas and let him do what he does best and that’s making those moments of magic like that.
“It’s great though and we fought and thought we worked really hard and deserved the three points.
“We’re gutted, but as I say, the lads battled so hard to get ourselves in front and get the three points and it’s a devastating way to lose them.
“Personally, it was never going to be easy for me coming here, it’s tough and you have to work as hard as you possibly can to try and get in the team.
“I’ve managed to do that and the team are very unlucky not to have got six points from my two starts.”
