Everton ended their winless run of six games with a hard-fought victory over West Ham at Goodison Park.
Neal Maupay scored the game’s only goal just after a drab first half, receiving the ball on the edge of the box before firing a quick shot on the bounce past a helpless Lukasz Fabianski and into the bottom left corner.
West Ham threatened more often after the break in a contest that became open and end to end, with Said Benrahma’s curling effort striking the post and Maxwel Cornet denied by Asmir Begovic late on.
A lack of quality in the final third and a troubling reliance on set pieces proved the downfall of David Moyes’ side again, though, as the Hammers slipped into the bottom three.
