LONDON : West Ham United moved out of the relegation zone as Gianluca Scamacca's first Premier League goal paved the way for a 2-0 home victory over struggling Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday.
West Ham were by far the better side and doubled their lead through Jarrod Bowen's sharp left-footed finish in the 54th minute after Thilo Kehrer's blocked shot fell to him. Costa, a free transfer until the end of the season, headed one good chance wide while Daniel Podence had a goal ruled out for offside as Wolves finally rallied.After challenging for a top-four place and reaching the Europa League semi-finals last season, West Ham have had an underwhelming campaign so far despite a hefty outlay in the summer transfer window.
"It was just what we needed. We've not had the start we wanted. In the international break we regrouped our thoughts," said Bowen, who broke into the England squad last season.Wolves fans were left grumbling at their side's poor start and the pressure will mount on manager Bruno Lage whose side have won only two of their last 17 Premier League games.
