West Ham “fumbled” Pavlidis-Hatzidiakou’s Alkmaar and are looking for a final!

Alkmaar’s teeth turned out to be too tough West Ham!

The “hammers” saw the group of -basic- Pavlidis and Hatzidiakou to open the score in London just before the end of the first half, in the second, however, they gave their soul and with two goals in 9′ prevailed 2-1 and they got a qualification lead for his final Conference! Of course, nothing is over, with the Dutch team also showing very hard nut and a big fight is expected in next week’s rematch.

The match

West Ham, wanting to confirm that it is the favorite of the pair in question, entered the game more strongly, taking the initiative of the movements from the first minutes. He created his first good chance with Bowen’s header when Alkmaar were playing with clear defensive orientation, having all its players – except Pavlidis – at the height of the large area.

In the 13th minute, the Hammers had their first big chance, with Benrahma curling in a right-footed shot from the height of the box and Ryan clearing for a corner with terrible operation. In the 41st minute, however, and while the hosts were pushing for a goal before halftime, the Raiders unleashed a powerful shot from outside the area, with Areola not having a good reaction and the ball ending up in the net.

The second half had exciting development. West Ham are out fierce on the pitch, but he equalized only in the 67th minute and even with penalty kick. Ryan tried to clear the ball but found Bowen with a punch, who jumped to head home, with the referee awarding the ultimate penalty. THE Benrahma he didn’t miss, leveling at 1-1.

Nine minutes later, and as Alkmaar was not doing wellhis team David Moyes reached the total overthrow! In the 76th minute, specifically, after full-time, Antonio “wrote” the score to 2-1 with a shot from the small area, so that the English team (invincible this year in the competition, with 12 wins in 13 games) qualification lead ahead of the second leg.
