Summerville and Ings denied as Everton hold West Ham to goalless draw
Was that enough? The reports had suggested that West Ham would review Julen Lopetegui’s future over the international break if West Ham lost to Everton. They avoided that but, other than the fact they picked up
another point, inching their way towards safety next May, was a featureless goalless draw really so much better.
This was, for long periods, a terrible game of football and, while West Ham will probably feel they had the better of the chances, certainly after half-time, when Jarrod Bowen curled a shot just wide, Crysencio Summerville hit the post and Danny Ings drew two fine saves from Jordan Pickford but, still, nobody could call this a performance that made an undeniable case for Lopetegui to stay on.
