West Ham’s great escape is on after huge win at Burnley

**West Ham pick up 3 massive points at Burnley as they look to stay up against all odds.**

The great escape is well and truly alive. With just 3 points separating West Ham and Nottingham Forest, there’s the potential for something very special to happen.

The Hammers took the lead at Turf Moor via another cool Crysencio Summerville finish, his 5th in 5 games, inside the opening 15 minutes. Before the half hour mark, they doubled their lead as a Taty Castellanos headed home a superb Diouf cross.

West Ham, despite conceding 3 times more shots than they had at the other end, Burnley had very few clear cut opportunities largely thanks to a stellar defensive display from loaned Axel Disasi. This is made even more impressive considering that he’s hardly played over the past year.

Finally, we’re seeing some spirit from this side. If thy hadn’t been so unlucky with the officiating against Forest, they’d be out of the relegation zone and would’ve won 5 in 6. The defeat to Chelsea was extremely frustrating, but my word does West Ham know how to reel back you in.
