West Ham boss David Moyes was proud of his players in defeat to Manchester City.

It took two goals from centre-backs Ruben Dias and John Stones, both of them after West Ham had initially cleared corners, to mean Michail Antonio's well-taken equaliser amounted to nothing more than a consolation.

Moyes said, "It is disappointing because I thought the players did a great job and I thought we played well today.

"We did well with the ball, we defended well and we were organised well when we had to be and we didn't give away too many chances to Manchester City throughout the game.

"We created one or two chances ourselves but the biggest one came in the last seconds to Issa and we didn't take it.

"We've been doing that quite a lot this season, picking up wins and coming from behind and getting something and we were really unfortunate not to do so today.

"I was disappointed with both goals we conceded, to be honest.

"For the first one, the ball travelled too long without us getting the first contact on the header or the goalkeeper coming and claiming it, so I was disappointed.

"But I was delighted with the way we got ourselves back in the game and went in at half-time level at one-each as that put us in a really good position."
