"WE’RE NOT DONE": JARROD BOWEN’S DEFIANT MESSAGE AFTER RECORD-BREAKING PERFORMANCE
West Ham United secured a vital 3-1 win over Sunderland, moving within two points of safety thanks to a first-half scoring blitz.
West Ham’s fight to stay in the Premier League isn’t over yet. They gave their survival hopes a real jolt with a lively 3-1 win over Sunderland.
Not long ago, things looked bleak for Nuno Espirito Santo and his team. They were seven points from safety and running out of time. But something’s changed. Back-to-back wins—first at Tottenham, now here—have clawed them within just two points of 17th-place Nottingham Forest. And with Forest heading to Brentford on Sunday, the gap might not grow.
Off the pitch, West Ham’s rescue mission keeps rolling. Argentinian midfielder Guido Rodriguez missed out as he lines up a move to Valencia, and Fulham’s Adama Traore is close to joining. Lucas Paqueta remains out; his future is still up in the air. There was at least a rare sighting of James Ward-Prowse on the bench, back in the fold after a spell out in the cold under Nuno.
Sunderland didn’t have their captain, Granit Xhaka, sidelined with an ankle problem, and they felt it. Still, they started strong. In less than two minutes, Noah Sadiki unleashed a rocket, and Alphonse Areola had to leap to keep it out. But West Ham struck first. In the 14th minute, Jarrod Bowen burned down the right and floated in a perfect cross. Crysencio Summerville, despite being one of the shortest on the field, climbed above Nordi Mukiele and nodded in his third goal in three games.
A few hundred West Ham fans missed all that, still protesting in the stands, but they arrived just in time to see the second. Ollie Scarles was clipped in the box by Trai Hume, and Bowen coolly slotted home the penalty—his first goal of 2026.
Then came a real treat. Right before halftime, Taty Castellanos had a shot blocked, the ball split out to Mateus Fernandes about 30 yards from goal, and he whipped a beauty into the top corner. That one had even the home fans shaking their heads in disbelief.
Sunderland, who’ve struggled on the road despite an impressive return to the top flight, finally got something going after the break. Brian Brobbey headed in Mukiele’s cross, denying Nuno his first clean sheet since taking over in September.
The last few minutes had a bit of everything: Luke O’Nien hit the post for Sunderland, Xhaka seemed to argue with a West Ham supporter from the bench, and Tomas Soucek had a messy fourth goal ruled out.
But none of that spoiled the moment. West Ham picked up a second straight win, and for now, they’ve got a real shot at survival. They’re not done yet—not by a long shot.
CONOR GALLAGHER CONFIRMED AS "VITAL" STARTER FOR SPURS FOLLOWING BENTANCUR’S INJURY LAYOFF
Conor Gallagher proved the doubters wrong against Man City. Discover why his €40m move to Tottenham is finally paying off for Spurs.

Chelsea and Atletico Madrid both decided Conor Gallagher wasn’t worth the trouble. At Chelsea, he had his moments—Pochettino liked him, but the fans never really warmed up. When Chelsea shipped him off to Atletico, it made sense. Enzo Fernandez stepped up, took over Gallagher’s role, and fit in perfectly next to Caicedo, with Cole Palmer adding that extra spark up front.
Things didn’t get much better for Gallagher in Spain. He barely got a chance at Atleti, lost his spot in the starting eleven, and pretty much ended up on the transfer list before anyone had time to blink. Interest was lukewarm at best until the winter window rolled around. Aston Villa wanted him and went after him pretty aggressively, but then Tottenham swooped in late. Spurs needed someone to patch up the midfield after Bentancur’s injury, so they just paid up—40 million euros, no hesitation.
His start at Tottenham? Rough. Honestly, that was to be expected. He’d played well at Palace before, but after his struggles at Atleti, he needed time to adjust. Sitting on the bench in Spain didn’t do him any favours.
Then Gallagher showed up. People doubted whether he could really add creativity and move the ball forward for Spurs, so his early struggles got people worried. But then came the 2-2 draw against Manchester City. He suddenly looked like the player both Ange Postecoglou and Thomas Frank were so desperate to sign.
Against City, Gallagher flipped the script. He set up a crucial assist, drove play forward on the dribble, and kept drawing fouls—everything the Spurs needed. Defensively, he was all over the place in a good way: two tackles, three interceptions, a full 90 minutes, and a huge part of the Spurs clawing their way back into the game.
Tottenham fans loved it. They saw the effort, the attitude, and the hunger to win. Gallagher just wouldn’t quit, and in that second half, he, Xavi Simons, Pape Matar Sarr, Destiny Udogie, and Dominic Solanke ran the show. Four of those guys have been carrying Spurs lately, so Gallagher is fitting right in with them. That’s a pretty good sign he’s going to work out just fine in North London.
