West Ham close in on Europa League spot after win over West Brom
Late goals by Angelo Ogbonna and Michail Antonio secured a 3-1 Premier League victory for West Ham United at relegated West Bromwich Albion to move them closer to securing a Europa League spot on Wednesday.
West Ham's Declan Rice struck the post with a penalty in the opening minute and the visitors fell behind after 27 minutes when Matheus Pereira's corner went in off Tomas Soucek.

Soucek made amends, however, by equalising in first-half stoppage time.
Ogbonna bundled West Ham in front in the 82nd minute before Antonio wrapped up the points six minutes later.
West Ham moved into sixth spot on 62 points, three ahead of Tottenham Hotspur and Everton, with one game left.
One point against Southampton on Sunday would secure West Ham a place in next season's Europa League.
