STARS IN EUROPE - SENEGAL / NIGERIA - CLUB - Moses and Sakho scored against Man City

West Ham United F.C. Victor Moses

 

 

Diafra Sakho

 

Goals from Nigeria's Victor Moses and Senegal's Diafra Sakho help West Ham win 2:1 away to Yaya Toure's Manchester City.

Manchester City missed the chance to move six points clear at the top of the Premier League as West Ham produced a clinical counter-attacking display at Etihad Stadium.

Victor Moses drilled in his first West Ham goal with a low 20-yard shot which crept inside Joe Hart's left-hand post.

The visitors doubled their lead when Diafra Sakho hooked in from six yards.

City's record signing Kevin De Bruyne fired in to halve the deficit, but West Ham held on to move into second place.

Yaya Toure's angled shot whistled past the Hammers' post after the break, while away keeper Adrian made a string of excellent saves.

City dominated the game, controlling 72% of possession and attempting 27 shots at goal, but were unable to find a way past an away side who are now three points behind them.
