November 10, 2021 West Ham’s Angelo Ogbona Suffers ACL Injury

West Ham’s Angelo Ogbona Suffers ACL Injury

West Ham United defender Angelo Ogbonna damaged knee ligaments during Sunday's Premier League win against Liverpool.

Ogbonna, 33, was forced off with an eye injury during the first half but later complained of discomfort in his knee.

A scan on Monday showed the Italy centre-back, an ever present for the Hammers in the league this season, had damaged his anterior cruciate ligament.

He will see a specialist later this week to determine whether he needs an operation and a timescale of recovery.

West Ham rose to third in the table after Sunday's 3-2 victory against Liverpool at London Stadium.

David Moyes' side are also through to the EFL Cup quarter-finals and have qualified for the Europa League knockout stages with two group games to spare.

October 28, 2021 Holders Man City Knocked Out Of Carabao Cup

Holders Man City Knocked Out Of Carabao Cup

Holders Manchester City were knocked out of the Carabao Cup after West Ham United won 5-3 on penalties in front of an ecstatic sell-out crowd at London Stadium.

The fourth-round tie had ended goalless after 90 minutes before Said Benrahma scored the decisive spot-kick.

Phil Foden fired his penalty wide to give the Hammers the advantage in the shootout.

It is the first time since 2016 City, who have won the competition for the past four seasons, have been eliminated.

Pep Guardiola made nine changes to his side but City finished the 90 minutes with substitutes Foden, Gabriel Jesus and Jack Grealish on the pitch as they searched for a winner in normal time.

Despite peppering West Ham's goal with 25 attempts, they could not find a breakthrough as the hosts claimed a famous win to advance to Saturday's quarter-final draw.

Ronald Koeman has been sacked as head coach of Barcelona after 14 months in charge at the Nou Camp.

December 3, 2019 West Ham, Everton, four others battle for Ighalo

West Ham, Everton, four others battle for Ighalo

West Ham and Everton are among the six Premier League clubs vying to bring former Super Eagles player, Odion Ighalo, back to England.

Ighalo, who currently plays for Shenhua in the Chinese Super League, has been previously linked with a move to his former club, Watford, but British tabloid Liverpoolecho and Hammersnews on Monday both wrote that the fight for the Nigerian is on the rise.

Watford are one of those interested in the 30-year-old with Everton, Newcastle United, Southampton and Crystal Palace completing the sextet.

The 35-cap Nigeria international scored 20 goals to get Watford promoted in 2015 and then backed that up with 17 goals in 42 games the following season.

However, in the 2016/17 season, he only managed one Premier League goal in 18 matches before moving to China, joining Changchun Yatai before his February 2019 switch to Shenhua.

The 30-year-old has scored 10 goals for the Chinese club from 17 league appearances this season.
