West Ham 1 Middlesbrough 1: Payet stunner ends Hammers' losing streak

West Ham secured a vital 1-1 draw against fellow Premier League strugglers Middlesbrough thanks to a piece of brilliance from Dimitri Payet.

Dimitri Payet's stunning solo goal salvaged a point for struggling West Ham as they ended a run of four consecutive Premier League defeats in a 1-1 draw against Middlesbrough at London Stadium.

Cristhian Stuani's second-half header put the away side ahead and had the home fans fearing a fifth defeat on the spin in Saturday's contest.

However, Payet stole the show for the Hammers, the France international leaving the Boro defence in a daze with a superb run and clever finish to level the match in the 57th minute.
