YARMOLENKO TOO MUCH FOR EVERTON TO HANDLE

West Ham have their first points of the season as they put in a terrific performance against Everton to win 3-1...

The away side started the better and puts lots of early pressure on Everton and that pressure turned to a one goal lead ten minutes in.

Marko Arnautovic's low ball across was tucked in by Andriy Yarmolenko, who had his first goal for Manuel Pellegrini's side.

West Ham were looking a serious threat on the counter-attack and their new signings Yarmolenko and Felipe Anderson, who haven't performed up until now, were proving their price-tags.

It was the Ukrainian's first start in the Premier League; and he was justifying Pellegrini's decision as he doubled his and the Hammers' tally.

Cutting in from the right, Yarmolenko's side footed beauty curled around the Everton defenders and beat Jordan Pickford.

There was a response just before half-time for Everton as Gylfi Sigurdsson headed home to make the score 2-1 at the break.

It was a perfect time to score for the Toffees, and the fans would have been hoping they could build on that in the second-half.

However, West Ham responded brilliantly when they came out by applying even more pressure, when it could have been tempting for Pellegrini to sit back.

Pedro Obiang and Arnautovic combined to score a wonderful third goal, with the Austrian grabbing his third goal of the season.

Oumar Niasse's header nearly got the hosts back in the game, but the late substitute was denied by the crossbar.

West Ham saw the game out pretty comfortably in the end and achieved their first win under Pellegrini and their first of the season.
