A fairly easy victory for the “hammer”, England’s third division soccer team has long forgotten their performances in the Premier League and today is unable to put up a fight to a representative of the elite. The “West Ham” from the first minutes began to attack and forced the guests to sit lower and lower at their goal. The first goal was the logical conclusion to the Londoners’ offensive debut. Yarmolenko scored his name on the scoresheet after a long pass through the middle of the field, the defenders gave him space and Andrey gave a comfortable pass to Alla, who, in one touch, transported the ball to the net.
Charlton missed the game in the 26th minute; Athletic just wasn’t good enough for this match. West Ham added that Snodgrass spun the ball to Alla in the penalty area and the hero of the match fired into the top corner. An excellent combination – 2: 0.
Then Lancini and Yarmolenko did not realize the brilliant opportunity. At first, Lancini outwitted the defender one-on-one, with a cunning movement he pushed his way to the line and gave a pass to the Ukrainian who was apparently knocked down. But the referee did not award a penalty. However, the owners did not even think to get angry, everything went according to their scenario.
Yarmolenko took on the game boldly, the Ukrainian gleefully performing various tricks against “not-so-high-level players” (quote from Telegraph.co.uk). Andrey gave West Ham a few more chances to score; it didn’t work, as if the Hammers were playing an opponent. But the passes were very good.
And yet Anderson led the matter to defeat. Lancini beat Barker, did everything for a goal, the teammate could only calmly complete the combination. In all respects, the Londoners have overtaken “Charlton” and have deservedly advanced to the next stage of the tournament.
