West Ham through to the fourth round in unconvincing fashion
West Ham 1-0 Shrewsbury

WEST HAM huffed and puffed last night night before finally blowing Shrewsbury’s FA cup dreams away.

Indicative of the difficulties that the Premier League side faced was that it took 200 minutes of open play before they managed to score.

The first real chance of the game fell to Shrewsbury in the second half when Stefan Payne broke free, only for Joe Hart to narrow the angle and save with his feet.
