- Obiang thrilled to see Jonathan Calleri end wait for first West Ham United goal
- Win was fifth for the Hammers in their last seven Premier League outings
- Spanish midfielder says the Hammers can continue in this vein with the attacking threat they possess
Pedro Obiang was delighted to see Jonathan Calleri get off the mark for West Ham United in Saturday's 3-1 victory at Middlesbrough.
Calleri sealed the win in the closing moments with his first goal since a summer loan move from Deportivo Maldonado, killing off a Middlesbrough challenge which had already been dented by Andy Carroll's double.
With the Hammers strikers contributing strongly - Michail Antonio also took his assist tally from the last two games to four - Obiang is not surprised to see the goals, and points, flow.
"I am happy for Jonathan on many levels," he said. "It has been difficult for him these last three months, but Saturday can be a big moment for him.
"Scoring the goal will give him confidence, for him and for the supporters. It is hard for any striker when you don't score, so now he has his goal, everybody is happy.
"When we win like this it shows we are a team. We work together, we fight together and this is very nice for us and for the supporters.
"At the moment, the important reason is we aren't conceding a lot of goals, and we are also scoring. This is because Andy and Michail Antonio have played so well in these last two games - and Manuel Lanzini too.
"Everyone knows Andy Carroll, when he is in the area you can do nothing. It is very hard to defend against him and we are lucky to have him."
