It was a derby showdown between West Ham United and Fulham at the Olympic Stadium. West Ham United once again without Antonio hosted fellow London rivals Fulham in a showdown of dominance.
The matchup started with both sides trying to get the best of each other by trying to create chances that can lead to goals but both teams were solid on holding on each other's throats.
It ended a barren draw in the first half and the second half was expected to yield goals.
The second half began with Fulham throwing all punches at West Ham but West Ham won't break not stop trying to throw theirs.
Both teams dragged the showdown down to 90min without breaking each other but a minute into injury time, West Ham super-sub Benrahma was able to get an important pass to Soucek who wasted no time to play the ball past the keeper to give West Ham the lead.
A couple of minutes after West Ham's goal luck smiled down on Fulham as they were handed a penalty right on brink of the last whistle.
Hope on the faces of Fulham players and the coach as they look to split the points with West Ham but all hopes disappeared into thin air when Lookman missed on the spot and the referee ended the game as West Ham claimed all three points.
