West Ham extended their perfect start to the season as Michail Antonio became the club's record Premier League goalscorer with a double in their 4-1 win against 10-man Leicester on Monday. David Moyes' side took the lead through Pablo Fornals' first half goal at the London Stadium. Leicester's Ayoze Perez was sent off for a dangerous stamp on Fornals just before half-time. Said Benrahma bagged West Ham's second after the break before Youri Tielemans got one back for Leicester. Antonio went into the game tied with Paolo Di Canio on a joint-record 47 goals for West Ham in the Premier League era. The 31-year-old took sole possession of the record with a brace in the closing stages as West Ham followed up last weekend's 4-2 win at Newcastle with another four-goal blitz. "I'm really pleased for him. I was disappointed with the way he played in the first half but he did enough to shut the manager up after what I said to him at half-time," Moyes said of Antonio. Despite a quiet summer in the transfer market, West Ham sit top of the table and look capable of emulating last season's sixth place finish.More Related News
