Root and Stokes grind down weary India to stretch lead beyond 100
With nothing to play for, West Ham get the better of Southampton
WEST HAM ran out easy 3-0 winners of this end of season encounter with Southampton.
The game had the feel of two teams with nothing to play for, with both missing some key players. West Ham opened the scoring on the 16th minute, when an inch-perfect through ball from Mark Noble was finished with ease by Marko Arnautovic.
Manuel Lanzini and Michail Antonio then tested Southampton keeper Fraser Forster but he was equal to the challenge, pushing both shots aside.
