Italian press were not impressed by West Ham's tactics during their Europa Conference League final over Fiorentina.

Jarrod Bowen scored a 90th minute goal to seal a 2-1 victory for the Hammers - who lifted their first trophy in 43 years.

It was a disappointing loss for Vincenzo Italiano's side, which was reflected on the front pages of Italian newspapers this morning.

However in online articles, Italian press were critical of West Ham's performance, while also slamming their supporters after Fiorentina captain Cristiano Biraghi was left bleeding from the head after being struck by an object.
