West Ham's Dramatic Victory Over Everton in Premier League

West Ham secured a dramatic victory over Everton in the Premier League, scoring twice in injury time to clinch the win. Tomas Soucek's stylish half-volley and Edson Alvarez's late strike sealed the victory for the Hammers. Everton had taken the lead through Beto's header, but Kurt Zouma equalized for West Ham with a header from a corner. The win gives David Moyes, former Everton manager, a hat-trick of victories over his old club as Hammers boss. West Ham moves up to seventh in the Premier League table, while Everton remains in 16th place, five points above the relegation zone. This was Everton's first game since their 10-point deduction for breaching financial rules was reduced to six on appeal. However, they still face a separate charge for alleged breaches in their accounts. To secure their top-flight status, Everton needs to improve their clinical finishing in front of goal. The victory on their old stomping ground will please Moyes and his players, who now face Freiburg in the Europa League last-16 tie.
