Time:90'- Peterborough United
- West Ham United
90' It's all over at London Road! West Ham get a deserved 2-0 victory!- 85' West Ham remain dominant at London Road and the almost went three up through a fantastic improvised back heeled volley from Kevin Nolan after a George Boyd cross.
57' Goal! 2-0! West Ham double their lead. Grant McCann sloppily loses the ball in midfield to Gary O'Neil. He has loads of space so opts to have a pop from 25 yards and finds the bottom corner!- 51' After five successive draws West Ham are in front, that goal could be crucial to their chances of automatic promotion.
- 51' Goal! 1-0 to West Ham! The pressure finally tells. Matty Taylor crosses deep to Ricardo Vaz Te who gets up well to head back across goal and into the back of the net!
46' Big Sam Allardyce has also replaced Joey O'Brien with Julien Faubert.- 46' Back underway at London Road and Faye has not recovered from the knock which he suffered at the end of the first half, he's been replaced by Danny Collins for the visitors.
45' In the process of that goal mouth scramble, Abdoulaye Faye remained on the deck for four minutes, perhaps a touch of concussion following his last ditch defending.- 45' A good chance for Peterborough! After a goal mouth scramble the ball falls to George Boyd, but his poked shot is blocked on the line! That will do for the first half. It remains nil-nil.
- 40' West Ham are continuing to dominate at the Posh, but the final ball is just lacking at the moment. Their best chance of so far came after a five pass move which was played into Cole who layed off to Mark Noble who whistled a deflected shot inches wide.
- 26' West Ham are beginning to get a foothold in this match and are now dominating the possession. They are playing the ball up nicely to Cole, but so far he has been unable to do much with it.
12' Peterborough hit the post! Paul Taylor takes one step inside from the left before curling an effort which Rob Green has to tip on to the woodwork!- 8' West Ham have packed out London Road, but it's Peterborough who have started the brightest with Tomlin broke through midfield, playing a one-two with Boyd before hitting a shot at the keeper.
- 19:30 Team news is filtering through to us. West Ham do indeed welcome back Ricardo Vaz Te and Abdoulaye Faye, while Julien Faubert is on the bench for the Hammers. Peterborough: Jones, Alcock, Zakuani, Brisley, Rowe, Frecklington, McCann, Boyd, Tomlin, Taylor, Barnett Subs: Lewis, Little, Ball, Sinclair, Kearns /// West Ham: Green, O'Brien, Tomkins, Faye, McCartney, O'Neil, Noble, Nolan, Taylor, Cole, Vaz Te Subs: Baldock, Maynard, Carew, Faubert, Collins
- 19:20 West Ham will check on Julien Faubert, Ricardo Vaz Te and Abdoulaye Faye ahead of the trip to London Road. Faubert has been out for four matches with a groin problem and fellow winger Vaz Te has missed the last three due to a hamstring injury, but both are close to returning.
