Leeds United was off to a good start with Mateusz Klich opening the score for them from the penalty spot, converting the shot when Lukasz Fabianski was penalized, this VAR decision became controversial as David Moyes did not agree with the penalty and called the move rubbish.

West Ham climbed to fifth place yet again in the Premier League table even when Hammers weren’t off to a good start but West Ham worked on Leeds weakness to win the match when Tomas Soucek later equalized the score from Jarrod Bowen's corner and pushed it past Leeds goalkeeper Illan Meslier, Angelo Ogbonna fired the winning goal with 11 minutes remaining in the match by working off Aaron Cresswell's free-kick. The visitors would have scored once more but Fabian Balbuena could not find the net and ended the match with 2-1.
