West Ham’s Mohammed Kudus scored an 89th-minute equaliser to deny Newcastle United victory in a thriller at London Stadium.
Newcastle looked to be heading for a fifth straight win when Alexander Isak’s second-half double turned the game around, following Tomas Soucek’s eighth-minute opener for the Hammers.
But Kudus’ first Premier League goal since joining West Ham in the summer, a driven effort into the bottom corner, ensured the points were shared in the capital.
David Moyes’ side were boosted by the return of forward Michail Antonio, who was back from a hip injury, and they took the lead from their first attack from unmarked midfielder Soucek who tapped into an empty net.
When Newcastle responded at the start of an exciting second period, West Ham then appeared to be slipping to a third Premier League defeat in four matches.
That was until Kudus struck brilliantly from the edge of the penalty area.
