Burnley 1-2 West Ham: Michail Antonio scores two in win for Hammers

Michail Antonio scored twice as West Ham came from behind to defeat Burnley and maintain their pursuit of a top-four finish in the Premier League.

Burnley striker Chris Wood won and converted a penalty in the first half, before Antonio headed in Vladimir Coufal's teasing cross to equalise.

Returning after four weeks out with a hamstring injury, Antonio poked in Said Benrahma's curling delivery for his second eight minutes later.

West Ham created numerous chances to extend their lead but Burnley could have made it 2-2 when Jay Rodriguez lashed a shot wide from close range.
