Maxwel Cornet bagged himself a goal and an assist to give David Moyes some food for thought with the Ivorian breaking the deadlock from close range with a tidy finish after Saïd Benrahma had regained possession in the Dagenham and Redbridge penalty area.

The hosts did draw level just before the half-hour mark with Inih Effiong equalising.

Cornet’s involvement was pivotal as he laid the ball on the plate for 18-year-old Divin Mubama to slot in from 12 yards out for his third goal in as many pre-season games.

But there was one final twist late in the second half as Sydney Ibie equalised again from the spot to halt West Ham’s winning run in pre-season.

The level of opposition goes up a notch next for the Hammers as they travel to France to take on Rennes next Saturday.
