Lee Dixon heaps praise on West Ham player after win over Sheffield United
of West Ham United’s 3-0 win over Sheffield United, as David Moyes’ side cruised to a win that placed them in the top four, for a matter of hours.
Goals from Declan Rice, Issa Diop and Ryan Fredericks saw the Hammers climb into the Champions League slots on Monday night, only for the East London side to then drop out straight away – as Chelsea beat Newcastle United 2-0.
Rice opened the scoring from the penalty spot after Jesse Lingard was fouled, before a delicious cross from Aaron Cresswell was headed into the net by Diop just before the hour mark. It was three in injury time, as substitute Fredericks netted.
Dixon has applauded the cross of £4million () West Ham signing Cresswell, as it was his cross that saw the Hammers double the lead and secure all three points – their 12th win from 24 Premier League matches. They sit in fifth place.
