A PULSATING game between West Ham and Manchester City finished with honours even at the London Stadium on Sunday.

A game that marked the end of an illustrious 18-year-career for Hammers club captain Mark Noble, who was to make a cameo appearance for the last 15 minutes, did not disappoint.

Both teams needed the points: City to hold on to the title, West Ham to qualify for the Europa League next season.
