What an emphatic finish that was. West Ham couldn’t get out from a long throw-in and that eventually led to the goal. McAtee’s long angled ball from the right was cleverly headed into a dangerous area by Trusty, 25 yards from goal. Osula’s header was clawed away by Areola, a pretty good save to his right, but Brereton Diaz reacted superbly to lift the bouncing ball over Ward-Prowse and ram it into the net on the half-volley. He did it all in one continuous, cathartic movement.
He likely benefited from not having the chance to overthink, as the saying goes. His instincts took over and he executed the goal beautifully. This marks Brereton Diaz’s first goal of a disappointing season for both his club and country. However, this could potentially change the course of his season.
Ben Brereton Diaz has finally ended his goal drought!
