Brentford Beats West Ham 2-0; Hammers Booed

Brentford beat West Ham 2-0 at the London Stadium, with Igor Thiago opening the scoring from Kevin Schade’s pass and Mathias Jensen adding a late second as Brentford dominated possession and chances. The win moved Brentford to 13th with 10 points from eight games and left West Ham 19th with four points, while many home fans booed and left early. It was the first time West Ham have lost their opening four home league games this season, extending a rare slump reminiscent of 1930–31. Brentford boss Keith Andrews praised the team’s chemistry and highlighted Thiago and Jordan Henderson’s influence on the performance. West Ham’s new manager Nuno Espírito Santo faces intense scrutiny after a disorganised, lethargic showing.
