    I really want to see if Raul Jimenez can make the difference. He's a great player; he's missed some time, but I think he's got something different, something special.

    A young fan throws the ball back to Romain Saiss and gets a cheer from the West Ham supporters around him. The hosts will be happy to see out these final few minutes.

    Wolves have been limited. We've seen a couple of opportunities and good blocks, especially from Zouma. But they haven't created enough.

    West Ham 1-0 Wolves

    Kurt Zouma gets up well to head away the inswinging delivery.

    West Ham could break here, but Michail Antonio gives it away and then has to make a foul to stop Raul Jimenez countering. He goes into the book.

    Wolves are going to bring on Raul Jimenez as they look for a leveller. The visitors have got 10 minutes to find one at the London Stadium.

    And they have corner...

    West Ham 1-0 Wolves

    First chance for Pedro Neto to open his legs, driving towards the box and throwing in a couple of step overs, but he can't find a way through.

    It's all being played in front of the West Ham defence at the moment.

    Daniel Podence works an opening and hits on from range, but it strikes Kurt Zouma and runs behind for a corner.

    Here comes Pedro Neto for Wolves, on in place of Marcal.

    Smart play from Declan Rice to break things up and then find a pass. Michail Antonio picks it up on the left and loops in a cross, but there was a foul in there somewhere.

    West Ham 1-0 Wolves

    West Ham are really pressing for a second now.

    It's a lovely combination down the left between Pablo Fornals and Aaron Cresswell, but the latter's cross can't find a team-mate.

    West Ham 1-0 Wolves

    Great break from Michail Antonio, turning on the halfway line and busrting towards the box. He stays on his feet despite appearing to be clipped by Max Kilman in the area and pulls it back for Tomas Soucek, who can't find the target.

  12. 'West Ham have more intensity'published at 15:30 GMT 27 February 2022

    West Ham 1-0 Wolves

    Michael Brown
    Former Manchester City midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live

    West Ham are pressing higher, quicker, with more intensity. Michail Antonio is drifting out to the left-hand side; he's causing a lot of problems.

    West Ham 1-0 Wolves

    Daniel Podence, who has replaced Francisco Trincao, looks to take on Aaron Cresswell but the West Ham left-back stands firm and takes a knock for his trouble.

    West Ham 1-0 Wolves

    Big chance for Jarrod Bowen after some lovely footwork by Pablo Fornals, weaving through Wolves defenders on the edge of the box and finding Bowen.

    But his low, poked effort is saved by Jose Sa. The flag stayed down, but he might have just been offside there.

  15. Postpublished at 65 mins

    West Ham 1-0 Wolves

    Fabio Silva is trying to make something happen, this time creating a bit of space on the edge of the box but skewing an effort high and wide.

  16. Postpublished at 63 mins

    West Ham 1-0 Wolves

    Nice turn from Fabio Silva inside the box and he gets a strike off, but Kurt Zouma is alert to it and blocks the effort. He's starting to find some more promising positions, the young striker.

    West Ham 1-0 Wolves

    It's suddenly opened up since the goal and Wolves have to scramble clear a West Ham corner. They need to come out a bit now.

  18. 'Wolves will be disappointed'published at 15:22 GMT 27 February 2022

    You could have called it. Wolves will be disappointed; a throw-in, great work by Cresswell, a back heel by Fornals and Antonio's awareness is good. On the half turn, he strokes the ball across for Soucek to give West ham the lead with a simple tap-in.

    Can Wolves hit back? They have a corner... but Marcal's header is never threatening.

    GOAL - West Ham 1-0 Wolvespublished at 15:19 GMT 27 February 2022

    Tomas Soucek (59 mins)

    There you go!

    It's lke Michail Antonio was listening to Michael Brown's commentary - he latches on to a loose ball from a West Ham throw and has the composure to roll it across the six-yard box, where Tomas Soucek pokes out a toe and guides it beyond Jose Sa.

    David Moyes was only just calling on more goals from those two before the game.
