West Ham boss David Moyes was happy with their point against Manchester City.

The home side struck first in spectacular style through Michail Antonio, but were pegged back early in the second half by away sub Phil Foden.

Moyes said, "Somebody said to me before the game that we've lost to Manchester City 5-0 and 4-0 in our home games recently and I thought 'Oh my goodness, I don't want to hear that' but today was different.

"Today we felt more confident and we believed we had a chance. It wasn't a big chance, but the chance there was there for us, we took it, we stuck at it and we kept going, that's for sure."

On Antonio's goal, he added: "It's sort of thing as a kid you always wanted to score an overhead kick, that's for sure, and I'll get a chance to see it tonight and see what it looks like.

"We had to bring him off against Spurs with something a wee bit the same. He's just feeling something a little bit in his hamstring. We think he feels it's just cramping so it's not serious, but we're not too sure.

"Obviously, it's worrying me that it's two games in a row that he's felt it. He's really important to us so we're going to have to do the right thing and try and look after him when we can and it might be the odd time we're not able to use him."
