Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa strikes kept Brentford in the hunt for European football next season as West Ham were beaten.

Both goals arrived before half-time at the Gtech Community Stadium as the Hammers, in the middle of their Europa Conference League semi-final, were second best.

Danny Ings saw a second-half reply chalked off by VAR after Divin Mubama was adjudged to have handled the ball after it bounced off the post.
