Match Report

West Ham picked up their first Championship win of the season with a 4-2 win over Wolves at the London Stadium, powered by a brilliant brace from Divine Mukasa. His opener in the 33rd minute, a rising 20-yard drive that clipped the underside of the bar, set the tone for a lively night. Jarrod Bowen added a 42nd-minute penalty before Marshall Munetsi pulled one back for Wolves right on the stroke of half-time. Mukasa struck again early in the second half, and Konstantinos Mavropanos headed home a corner in the 64th minute to make it 4-1, only to turn a Tchatchoua cross into his own net five minutes later to complete a bizarre personal double. The win was overdue relief for West Ham and manager Nuno Espirito Santo, who had gone three games without a win since dropping out of the Premier League. For Wolves, it ended an unbeaten start under new boss Cesar Peixoto, snapping a promising run that had brought seven points from three matches.
