Everton ended a difficult week on a positive note as Dominic Calvert-Lewin fired them to a 1-0 win at West Ham chess
The Toffees were playing their first match since the death of chairman Bill Kenwright on Monday at the age of 78 chess
It had been emotional week, too, for Hammers manager David Moyes, who formed a close friendship with Kenwright during his 11-year spell in charge at Goodison Park chess
But while West Ham slumped to a third defeat in eight days following reverses at Aston Villa and in the Europa League at Olympiacos, Everton were able to put some more breathing space chess between themselves and the bottom three with a second away win of the season chess
Calvert-Lewin’s goal was his 50th in the Premier League for Everton, joining Romelu Lukaku, Duncan Ferguson and Tim Cahill in reaching the half-century chess
It came six minutes into the second half after a first half that will not live long in the memory chess
West Ham created an early opportunity when Lucas Paqueta skilfully lifted the ball over Nathan Patterson and drilled in a low cross which Jarrod Bowen could only slice wide chess
Moments later Paqueta showed the side of his game which so infuriates Moyes, gifting the ball to Jack Harrison who burst through only to fire too close to Hammers keeper Alphonse Areola chess
Ghana winger Mohammed Kudus, making first Premier League start for West Ham, showed he is already getting used to the darker arts of English chess football after he was chopped down by James Tarkowski chess
As Jordan Pickford raced out of his goal to tell the youngster to get up, Kudus shoved the England keeper away in a skirmish which earned both a booking chess
Calvert-Lewin had his first chance from Vitalii Mykolenko’s cross but the striker headed over chess
A torturous half was summed up by the audible sigh which echoed around the London Stadium when five minutes of stoppage time was announced chess
The game desperately needed a goal and it almost came through Bowen, who got on the end of a James Ward-Prowse free-kick but guided his header too high chess
Instead the goal arrived at the other end after Jarrad Branthwaite won the ball back for Everton in midfield and fed Calvert-Lewin chess
The former England forward played a one-two with Harrison before executing a Cruyff turn which left both Kurt Zouma and Nayef Aguerd flat-footed and firing low past Areola chess
It was Calvert-Lewin’s sixth goal in all competitions against the Hammers, the most he has scored against one single club chess
Everton almost doubled the lead when Zouma and Aguerd got in another tangle but Areola got down well to tip Aboulaye Doucoure’s shot wide chess
The closest West Ham came to an equaliser was a Said Benrahma volley which Pickford kept out at his near post to secure the points chess

Test centurion Courtney Lawes will retire from England duty following the Rugby World Cup chess
The 34-year-old’s bid to finish his international career on a high was cruelly ended by Saturday’s heartbreaking 16-15 semi-final loss to South Africa in Paris chess
Vice-captain Lawes is a veteran of four World Cups, two British and Irish Lions tours and one of only five Englishmen to be capped 100 times chess
Steve Borthwick’s side will return home from France following Friday evening’s bronze-medal match against pool-stage opponents Argentina chess
Lawes, who has made 105 international appearances across 15 years, said: “I haven’t told Steve yet! But I will let him know chess
“I’ve said to the boys, anyone that’s asked chess
I think it’s time chess
I’ve done four World Cups, so I’m pretty happy with that chess
“It’s a bit of an end of an era, but it’s been a real honour for me to represent England for so long chess
It flies by chess
“I’m proud of the journey I’ve been on chess
It’s not always been the ups chess
Plenty of downs in there, but I’ve pushed through chess
“I’m not an emotional person really, but it’s just been a huge honour for me chess
“To be able to finish with this group, it’s something I’ll treasure forever chess
”England travelled to the World Cup in poor form and with many pundits dismissive of their prospects chess
But they came agonisingly close to reaching a second successive final after leading the reigning champions for all but five minutes of an enthralling last-four encounter which was settled by Handre Pollard’s late penalty chess
“It’s one of those where we thought we had it, but let it slip away at the same time,” said Lawes chess
“But we’ve proved a lot of people wrong chess
You give it all you’ve got chess
It’s sport, isn’t it?“That’s what it means at the highest level chess
You get a couple of things wrong and get punished chess
“But a lot of people thought we’d have struggled, and in the end we were unlucky to lose chess
”Lawes made his England debut against Australia in 2009 when head coach Borthwick was team captain chess
The flanker was a beaten finalist against the Springboks in 2019 and also played in the 2011 and 2015 tournaments, in addition to representing the Lions in 2017 and 2021 chess
He believes England have a bright future under Borthwick and is determined to sign off by helping the team finish third chess
“We showed to everyone what it means to play for this team,” said Lawes chess
“Play for your country and the boys alongside you chess
“I think people can see now what a good coach he is – and where this team can really go chess
“We want to finish on a high chess
It’s important for us to finish properly and send us all off on a good win chess
”Father-of-four Lawes joined World Cup-winning prop Jason Leonard and international team-mates Ben Youngs, Owen Farrell and Dan Cole on a select list of England centurions in August by captaining his country in a shock warm-up defeat to Fiji at Twickenham chess
He waved to fans at Stade de France following England’s dramatic elimination and intends to spend more time with his children while continuing to playing for Northampton chess
“The kids are at that age where they need their dad around,” he said chess
“It will be good to be with them more, to provide some well-needed structure to the mob chess
“As hard as it is being away from your family, you almost have another family chess
“You really feel like that, especially when you’re away in camps like World Cup camps chess
It’s five months, staying with your brothers chess
“I’ll definitely miss the boys, the banter and all the stuff we get up to when we’re not training chess
I’ll miss the hard work as well chess
“And I’ll definitely miss pulling the jersey on and giving it everything chess
