Victor Moses returns as West Ham suffer 2-1 Loss


Super Eagles winger, Victor Moses returned to action for West Ham in their 2-1 loss to Newcastle United in their Premier League clash at the St James’ Park on Saturday.

Moses who is currently on-loan from Chelsea came in as second half substitute, replacing Michail Antonio in the 70th minute. The 25-year-old was declared fit for the Newcastle trip by Hammers manager, Slaven Bilic few days to the match.

The Nigerian-winger has missed action in the Premier League for several weeks owing to hamstring injury which kept him in the sidelines.

The duo of Ayoze Perez and Georginio Wijnaldum got the goals for Newcastle in the 6th and 15th minutes respectively, while Nikica Jelavic scored West Ham’s goal in the 49th minute; as the game ended 2-1 in favour of hosts Newcastle at full time.
