— West Ham United (@WestHam) September 29, 2025Everton enjoyed a better first half with Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Jack Grealish enjoying freedom and dictating play. The former Leicester City mifielder, Dewsbury-Hall went close but his header went narrowly wide.
The Toffees were unable to take advantage of their early dominance and Bowen made them pay in the second half when he found space inside the box and his vicious left-footed shot that deflection off Keane before resting at the back of the net.
