Substitute Gianluca Scamacca slotted home the winner against Belgian side Anderlecht as West Ham recorded a third straight victory in the Europa Conference League.

Scamacca guided it into the bottom corner with a first-time strike on the turn, late in the second half.

West Ham goalkeeper Alphonse Areola was forced to make an excellent save to deny Anderlecht striker Fabio Silva's header shortly afterwards.

There were nine changes from the side that defeated Wolves in the Premier League in their last outing, with Michail Antonio and Said Benrahma among those given an opportunity.

Benrahma had the best chances in the first half when he had a shot blocked, before he was teed up by Jarrod Bowen, only to slice it over the bar from close range with the goal gaping and the scoreline remaining even.

Antonio and Bowen also came close, while on-loan Wolves striker Silva had an effort blocked in the box by his own team-mate Francis Amuzu for Anderlecht.

Moyes made changes with around 20 minutes remaining as West Ham searched for the winner - captain Declan Rice, midfielder Lucas Paqueta and striker Scamacca all came on.

The substitutions paid off as all three were involved in the goal as Paqueta set-up Scamacca to finish a silky team move.

The Hammers sit top of Group B with Anderlecht five points behind.

Arsenal put in another confident display to comfortably see off Bodo/Glimt in the Europa League at the Emirates.

Striker Eddie Nketiah got the opener as he reacted quickly to slot home after Kieran Tierney's powerful effort came back off the post.

Fabio Vieira was on hand to set up the second as he crossed it in for Rob Holding to head it in before the Portuguese himself got on the scoresheet to make it 3-0 late on.

Mikel Arteta's side have won four successive matches in all competitions and top their Europa League group, as well as leading the Premier League.

They looked like a team playing full of confidence in the first half despite Arteta making eight changes from the side that defeated rivals Tottenham in the weekend's north London derby.

Nketiah, who also scored in the 2-1 victory over Zurich in September, came into the team and was a threat throughout.

He deserved his goal when he pounced on the rebound from Tierney's strike - he had curled it inches wide earlier and teed up Vieira for his effort which struck the crossbar within 10 minutes.

Vieira was also hugely impressive, coming close on several occasions as well as providing the quality service for Holding's goal and scoring himself when he finished off a scintillating move by Gabriel Jesus.

Norwegian side Bodo/Glimt grew into the game in the second half and posed a threat but Arsenal goalkeeper Matt Turner was not tested enough by the visitors and they lacked a clinical edge to give them some sort of fighting chance in the pulsating encounter.

With two wins from as many group games so far, Arsenal now top Group A by two points over PSV Eindhoven, who they will lock horns with on 20 October.

Manchester United head coach Erik Ten Hag has heaped praises on an inspired substitute performance from Marcus Rashford after he earned Manchester United a nervy Europa League win over Omonia Nicosia.

Ten Hag introduced the England striker at the interval with the Cypriot side taking a shock lead in the first half.

Rashford netted twice, either side of also setting up fellow sub–Antony Martial.

"I think the subs really had an impact today and that is really good. That makes the team stronger," said Ten Hag.

The Cypriot side took a shock lead into half time through Karim Ansarifard, however Rashford equalised eight minutes after the break before setting up Martial just past the hour mark to give the visitors the lead.

Rashford made it 3-1 late on, before Nikolas Panayiotou pulled one back for the hosts.

Following United's embarrassing derby defeat at the weekend, Ten Hag made three changes with the headline being the return of Cristiano Ronaldo in place of Rashford up front.

However, it was ultimately the English forward who saved his side from a potentially humiliating defeat, while Ronaldo spurned several chances to score his 700th club career goal.

Ten Hag told BT Sport: "We were too static and we have to make the opposite movement to get behind. That's why also we make two subs in that time and they had really an impact.

"I think Luke [Shaw] and Marcus definitely helped with that but also Anthony Martial, of course, with 2-1."

Manchester United eventually saw the game out, but remain second in Group E after Real Sociedad won 2-0 in Sheriff to continue their 100 percent record on the continent- meaning a play-off against a team dropping out of the Champions League to reach the knockout stages remains a possibility.

Lionel Messi has lifted the lid over his international future as he says November's World Cup in Qatar will "surely" be his last.

The 35-year-old Paris St-Germain forward has played at four World Cups with Argentina, scoring six goals and making five assists in 19 appearances.

Messi narrowly missed out on his first World Cup Trophy as he earned a runners-up medal in 2014, and after captaining his country to the Copa America title in 2021, the World Cup is the sole major trophy missing from Messi's illustrious cabinet.

Speaking to ESPN, Messi said: "It's my last World Cup, surely," he said. The forward added, "I'm counting down the days to the World Cup. There is anxiety and nerves at the same time. Wanting it to be now, what is going to happen, and ultimately, how is it going to go?"

Messi made his international debut in 2005 and has gone on to make a total of 164 appearances for Argentina, scoring 90 goals in the process.

In reaching his fifth World Cup, he will surpass the previous record for an Argentina player he jointly held with Diego Maradona and Javier Mascherano.

Ahead of the World Cup, Argentina are ranked third in the FIFA world rankings, and will square up against Saudi Arabia, Mexico and Poland in Group C at the World Cup, which commences on 20 November.
