West Ham scored early but were held to a 1-1 draw at home by Crystal Palace in the Premier League.
West Ham took the lead in the 13th minute when James Ward-Prowse played a pass out wide to Vladimir Coufal on the right who cut it back to Mohammed Kudus in the area and his first time shot found the bottom corner via a small deflection.
Palace’s equaliser came in the 53rd minute with West Ham looking to play it out from the back, but a stray pass from Konstantinos Mavropanos was picked up by Odsonne Edouard who raced into the box and fired his shot into the far corner.
The home side finished stronger and had chances late on to take all three points, but Palace held out for a well-earned draw.
The Hammers remained ninth in the standings, on 21 points, while Palace moved up to 12th on 16 points.
