LB: Aaron Cresswell – 7/10

He pulled off multiple crucial clearances throughout the game but struggled to make an impact in the opponent’s half.

CM: Declan Rice – 7.5/10

The English midfield ace dominated the game in midfield and managed to create two good chances in the attacking end of the pitch.

CM: Tomas Soucek – 7/10

Soucek offered decent protection for his teammates at the back and was also lively going forward. He got replaced in the 78th minute.

RM: Jarrod Bowen – 8/10

The English winger put in a great delivery from a corner to set up Ogbonna’s match-winner. He also caused all kinds of problems for the opposition defenders.

CAM: Said Benrahma – 6.5/10

Benrahma had some bright moments in the final third but didn’t have his shooting boots on today.

LM: Pablo Fornals – 6.5/10

The Spaniard worked hard to help his teammates at the back but was lacklustre in the Everton half.

ST: Michail Antonio – 6.5/10

The Hammers striker created some decent openings for others around him but got booked for diving. He also failed to find the finishing touch in front of the Toffees goal.

Substitutes:

CB: Craig Dawson – 6.5/10

Dawson did well to see out the victory with his clean sheet intact.

CAM: Manuel Lanzini – N/A

He hardly had any time to influence the game.

RM: Andriy Yarmolenko – N/A

Yarmolenko didn’t get enough minutes to warrant a rating.
