David Moyes named seven first-team regulars in his starting line-up for Monday’s friendly at Meadow Park.

The Hammers’ wealth of experience soon showed as Danny Ings opened the scoring with a curling effort just inside the area.

A second followed shortly before half-time as Kamarai Swyer headed home from Pablo Fornals’ cross into the box.

Substitute Jarrod Bowen put the Europa Conference League holders further ahead by meeting Conor Coventry’s delivery with a tidy finish.

In the closing stages, homegrown graduate Gideon Kodua produced a first-time finish to assure the visitors of a comfortable victory.

But Boreham Wood snatched a late consolation when Femi Ilesanmi struck a long-range effort which had the beating of Joseph Anang.

West Ham face another four pre-season friendlies before kicking off their new Premier League campaign at Bournemouth on 12 August.
