Danny Ings' late equaliser rescued a point for West Ham against Fulham as Marco Silva's side were forced to settle for a 1-1 draw at Craven Cottage.
Fulham's positive start to the 2024/25 season was mirrored by their first-half display, as Emile Smith Rowe, Alex Iwobi and Adama Traore all impressed.
The home crowd thought they should have been awarded a penalty after Traore was bundled over by his former Wolves team-mate Max Kilman, but it wasn't long until the deadlock was broken through Raul Jimenez in the 25th minute.
Smith Rowe did well to keep the ball in play close to the byline, before cutting it back to Jimenez, who was a surprise inclusion in the starting XI after replacing Rodrigo Muniz.
West Ham possessed little threat in the first half, recording an expected goals value of just 0.05, but did improve after Lucas Paqueta and Crysencio Summerville were introduced in the second half.
The latter was inches away from tapping a cross into the back of the net, while Jarrod Bowen also saw an effort saved by Alphonse Areola from point-blank range.
It was a substitute that rescued a point for the visitors, as Bowen pulled the ball back to Ings - who only came on in the 82nd minute - before the striker created a yard of space and fired the ball into the bottom corner.
A goal with virtually the last kick of the game. The Hammers were second-best for most of this fixture but clawed their way back into it through their substitutions - and Julen Lopetegui deserves credit for that.
