West Ham shows a fighting spirit
The atmosphere at the London Stadium was hot ahead of West Ham’s first quarter-final in Europe since 1981, as they faced a ninth-placed Lyon 1 team in Ligue 1. However, the French team denied their poor position in the league throughout the match, as they settled well in the capital, with former Fulham and Celtic forward Dembele losing their best chance in the first half. West Ham’s best chance in the first 45 minutes fell to St. Benrahma, after Lopez denied him from a narrow angle. The turning point of the match came in the third minute of extra time of the first half, as Creswell pulled Dembele out of the big area of West Ham and showed a red card by the German referee Felix Zweier for a foul of the latter. The decision angered the Hammers boss, David Moyes, who received a yellow card for criticizing Zwayer at halftime. However, West Ham’s disappointment quickly turned to joy as Bowen hit seven minutes into the second half to give the 10 players a surprise lead. The Englishman has scored two goals in two games since returning from a month-long absence in Sunday’s win over Everton. Eleven minutes later, Bowen almost became a provider, but his cross simply avoided the impetuous Michail Antonio. But it turned out to be West Ham’s last chance in the game, as Lyon equalized in the 66th minute through Dobele. The loan player of Spurs was ready to turn the low cross of the replacement Tete who had a rebound from Ryan Fredericks, after Alphonse Areola had put his hand in the tradition of the Brazilian winger. Lyon pushed without surprise for the winner as West Ham were disappointed by two intruders on the field, the second in particular, as they interrupted a rare attack of the Hammers. However, some of Areola’s rebounds have led West Ham to keep their Europa League dream alive in next week’s crucial second game.
Moyes: Bowen commits a foul with a red card. I will not talk about the referral
West Ham manager David Moyes told BT Sport: “First, you have to look at the foul on Jared Bowen in the rally [to Cresswell’s red card].

We were very resilient in the second half. When we got into the half knowing we only had 10 players, it was hard work. We got stuck in it. We had one or two chances alone, but overall it was a good performance. in the second half. “I do not know if the pressure is reduced because we want to pass, we want to qualify. The players got stuck in it, but we did not play well. We hope we can play much better next week.”

The battle of West Ham keeps alive the hopes of the Europa League
Sky Sports’ Peter Smith: Following their team’s heroism against Sevilla at the London Stadium three weeks ago, West Ham fans were in full swing in anticipation of the first match against Lyon in the Europa League quarter-finals before the start. The first European quarterfinal of the club after 41 years. The tent was set up for a special night. Forty-five minutes later they may have feared that the dream was turning into a nightmare. The soft but probably correct dismissal of Aaron Cresswell, because he withdrew Moussa Dembele in the first half delays, left David Moyes’s team exposed and their hopes of moving on from this draw are seriously questioned. With a good performance in the second half, Lyon could possibly end the match after one leg. But the rest of the West Ham players created a great battle show to keep the tie alive. Incredibly, they even took the lead, with a shot deflected by amulet Jarrod Bowen that sparked frantic celebrations around the stadium. But while Tottenham’s loan midfielder Tanguy Ndombele equalized for Lyon – no doubt to the delight of some in north London – West Ham did not fold and, with the French side pushing forward slowly, the hosts put their bodies down. on the line to keep the 1-1. The spectacle of Craig Dawson, with blood pouring from his nose, beating loudly in a tackle on Dembele summed up the spirit. It was not the kind of performance West Ham fans had hoped for before the game – Moyes was quick to point out that his side were under par – but it was a performance that, against the odds at half-time, has created the potential for another historic night for the club next week.
