On This Day: Hammers triumph in Wolves thriller

Taking a look back at a classic West Ham United moment on this day in history, in association with Heineken...

West Ham United kept up our European charge with victory in a five-goal thriller at Wolverhampton Wanderers on this day in 2021.

The Hammers roared out of the blocks and flew into a 3-0 first half lead with a display of breathtaking, incisive, counter-attacking football.

Jesse Lingard was at the heart of our threat, scoring a superb solo opener with six minutes on the clock, before having a hand in both Pablo Fornals and Jarrod Bowen’s goals that followed.

Then, the opposition came back into the contest. Leander Dendoncker and Fábio Silva notched either side of the break for Wolves to send Hammers nerves fluttering.

But the Irons were able to solidify behind their shrinking lead and get over the line to claim three valuable points, which helped us on our way to a sixth-placed Premier League finish.
