"West Ham earned a huge win in their bid for Premier League survival as three first-half goals saw them beat Sunderland 3-1 at the London Stadium. Crysencio Summerville and Jarrod Bowen were on target before Matheus Fernandes scored a stunner before half-time to Nuno Espirito Santo's men firmly in the driving seat. Brian Brobbey pulled one back for the Black Cats but it was not enough to half a huge victory for the Hammers, which takes them within two points of 17th-placed Nottingham Forest"
"Noah Sadiki had the first effort on goal just two minutes in with a well-struck effort on the edge of the box which Alphonse Areola had to tip over the bar. But the Hammers recovered from a nervous start and got themselves in front when Summerville leapt brilliantly to head home Bowen's teasing cross to spark life into West Ham's survival bid."
"They could have been two up just moments later when Bowen's shot deflected into the path of Pablo but the January signing couldn't keep his shot down. Sunderland went close through Daniel Ballard's looping header which went just wide of the target but West Ham were handed the opportunity to make it 2-0 when Trai Hume brought down Ollie Scarles. Up stepped the ever-reliable Bowen, who slotted the ball into the bottom-right corner from 12 yards with a cool finish"
