Graham Potter is in charge of his first match as West Ham boss on Friday, and it hasn't taken long for the new era to get up and running.

The Hammers face Aston Villa in the FA Cup and hit on the counter for the opener.

Crysencio Summerville carried the ball on the right wing and eventually picked out an unmarked Lucas Paqueta, whose shot was easily driven into the net.

West Ham had only scored one goal in their last 180 minutes of football before this, and it's taken less than 10 minutes for Potter to get the players to their best.

Unfortunately for the visitors, their celebrations were stunted when striker Niclas Füllkrug was forced off with a hamstring injury minutes later.

The last time West Ham scored twice in a match was five games ago in early December. Can they get back to that tonight?
