West Ham seem to be incapable of doing anything other than float crosses into the box. They send a couple more in and Fulham, as they have all night, deal with them.

The home side are starting to take the initiative now, passing with more urgency. But chances remain elusive. Moyes’ side have really lacked creativity.

Soucek is the target for another West Ham cross, but the ball is behind him as he tries to head towards goal, and he can only manage a looping effort which Areola saves easily.

Benrahma, who’s been waiting for a long time to come on, replaces Fornals. Lanzini is also on for Bowen.

Good work from De Cordova-Reid, who knocks the ball through the legs of Cresswell and drives a low shot towards the far corner. Fabianski saves again.

The free kick is laid off by Mitrovic into Lookman, who hits a shot straight at Fabianski.

Lookman gets to a loose ball first and is fouled by Balbuena just on the edge of the area. Another good position for a Fulham free kick…

West Ham have been lethargic and unimaginative in this second half and it’s quite comfortable for Fulham, who will certainly be the happier of the teams if it remains goalless.

More Fulham possession, but far too often it’s directionless and sterile. The tempo of the game has dropped significantly.
