      West Ham 3 Viborg 1: New boy Scamacca gets first Hammers goal as Moyes’ boys take giant step towards Conference League

      by

      UP IN the executive seats at the London Stadium clutching a notebook, David Moyes would have had mixed emotions.Serving his European one-match touchline ban after booting a ball at a ball-boy in last season’s Europa League semi-final defeat to Frankfurt, the West Ham boss saw it all.

      Maxwel Cornet and Gianluca Scamacca had decent full debuts in Claret and Blue in the Hammers’ Europa Conference League play-off first leg against Viborg.
      The duo combined in the 23rd minute as Scamacca nodded home for the lead.
      Last campaign’s goal-getters Jarrod Bowen and Michail Antonio then got their own tallies up and running with second-half strikes.
      Angelo Ogbonna made a surprise return to the starting line-up to ease the club’s defensive injury woes and Thilo Kehrer came off the bench less than 24 hours after signing from PSG.

      But scribbled down in that notebook, while sat next to trusted coach Kevin Nolan throughout, Moyes will still have gripes over how their place in the group stages is not a done deal with a second leg in Denmark to come.
      Three goals at home is nothing to be sniffed at, but that killer instinct is still missing, worryingly against a respectively average opponent that briefly threatened a comeback.
      Progress has been hard to come by so far this season for the East Londoners, losing their opening two Premier League games without scoring a single goal.
      A much-needed victory and the sight of new-boys Scamacca and Cornet – worth a combined £47.5m – ripping it up was certainly a relief.

      One of Moyes’ notebook pages must be dedicated to ensuring his summer-signing pair start as many games from now on.
      A Cruyff-turn by Cornet out wide before an inch-perfect cross found the head of Scamacca, who was never going to miss that chance to grab his first goal in West Ham colours.
      Whisper it quietly, but it is a goal ex-West Ham manager Sam Allardyce would have drooled over, and a combination Moyes will hope to use on a more regular basis in weeks to come.
      Combinations have been hard to come by for Moyes with injuries and suspensions a common theme to the start of the season, and tonight was no different.
      Skipper Declan Rice missed out as he serves the first of his two-match Euro ban for accusing an official of corruption during that heated Europa loss to Frankfurt.

      Aaron Cresswell was also missing thanks to his red card early on in that same game, allowing Ogbonna to return from a knee injury for the first time since November.
      Youngsters Connor Coventry and Harrison Ashby also got a showing from the off as the hosts made the perfect start through Cornet and Scamacca.
      Bowen wasted two great opportunities to widen the gap, smacking both posts before curling one just wide.
      Manuel Lanzini replaced Pablo Fornals at the break only for the visitors to cause West Ham problems with Alphonse Areola called into action.
      The French keeper picked the ball out of his net in the 69th minute with some sloppy defending allowing Jacob Jensen to head in at the far post.

      But Said Benrahma’s spark down the left shortly after coming off the bench then teed up another sub in Antonio to tap in from a yard out.
      Frustratingly, Moyes still must rely on a diligent Danish display to see them into the groups.

      However, the West Ham boss may be tempted to hand summer signing Gianluca Scamacca his first start for the club.
      Elsewhere Viborg FF gaffer Jacob Friis is expected to return to his strongest side having rested a lot of key players on the weekend.
      But Jay-Roy Grot could retain his spot up-top having got off the mark against Silkeborg on Sunday.

      Both were likely to feature in the match, with Said in particular a regular starter for Viborg.
      A club statement read: “We are extremely sorry that we have not been able to get visas for the two players.
      “We have tried everything, and have been in close contact with DBU [Danish Football Association], Uefa, the two embassies and another foreign club which has been in a similar situation.
      “But unfortunately this has proved to be impossible, as there is a processing time of several weeks and the match was only finally decided a week ago.”

      Viborg’s sporting director Esper Fredberg added: “It is very unfortunate purely sportingly, as both players would have had a role in the match, but even more unfortunate purely humanly, that the two miss out on the great experience.”
      Said, 20, and Jatta, 23, will not be able to play in London on Thursday night, but will be available for the second leg in Denmark next week.
      The two sides meet with a place in the Europa Conference League group stage on the line.
      Viborg have already beaten Lithuanian outfit Suduva and Faroese club B36 to reach this stage.

      And nervous Hammers fans have not forgotten the last time their side tasted defeat in a continental qualifier.
      Rewind six years ago and West Ham were eliminated from the Europa League by Astra Giurgiu.
      Unbelievably, it was the SECOND consecutive season the Romanian outfit dumped the Hammers out of Europe.
      West Ham drew the first leg at away 1-1, before losing the return leg at home 1-0.

      But there’s since been plenty of change in the capital, with Slaven Bilic long gone and David Moyes in charge.
      As for West Ham’s starting XI on the night of the first-leg defeat, just THREE players remain at the club – and only one is a regular starter.
      Goalkeeper Darren Randolph, defender Angelo Ogbonna and forward Michail Antonio all lined up the last time West Ham lost a European qualifier.
      Of those three, only Antonio is set to start tomorrow’s game against Viborg.

      AZ Alkmaar 7 Dundee United 0: Jack Ross’ side dealt hammering that equals record Scottish European defeat

      by

      DUNDEE UNITED’s fans spent the afternoon partying outside Alkmaar’s historic cheese museum. Hours later they sat in stunned silence as AZ had their team on toast.

      It was a rotten night for Dundee United in the NethlerlandsCredit: Kenny Ramsay
      Alkmaar is the cheese capital of the Netherlands – and for United this was Edam disaster. 
      AZ’s seven goals earned the Tannadice men the humiliating distinction of equalling the Scottish record for a defeat in Europe, joining Celtic and Hibs following their batterings by Barcelona and Malmo. 
      Pascal Jansen’s side were always confident of turning around the 1-0 deficit from last week and showed exactly why with FIVE first-half goals to leave ragged United shellshocked. 
      At times manager Jack Ross must have wondered what he was standing watching as the goals rained in during a brutal 23 minutes of hell for the SPFL side. 
      HOW THEY RATED
      DUNDEE UTD MAN-BYS
      Mark Birighitti – Stunning block to deny Evjen early in the game but won’t want to watch back his role in the third or much else. A horrible evening picking the ball out so often. 2
      Liam Smith – Tough shift coping with the overloads AZ forced on him all night and was eliminated with a one-two for the opening goal. Couldn’t cope with being swamped by the AZ onslaught. 2 
      Ryan Edwards – Badly exposed stepping up a level and was left chasing shadows at times as AZ put their foot on the gas to run over the top of his team. Will have nightmares about this night. 2 
      Charlie Mulgrew – Made two early blocks to save his side but was gradually taken apart by rampant AZ as they brutally tore United to pieces. Struggled with Pavlidis all evening. 2
      Aziz Behich – Thrown in for a quickfire debut just hours after receiving his work permit clearance and won’t forget it in a hurry – for all the worst reasons. Hooked after 55 minutes. 2  
      Craig Sibbald – Had one of the toughest shifts of the night keeping up with AZ’s midfield as they flooded forward at every opportunity. Hooked at the break for Niskanen as Ross tried to salvage pride. 2  
      Ian Harkes – So unlucky to see Verhulst make a stunning save to deny him with a bicycle kick which could have levelled the scoreline in the first half. Couldn’t get a grip of the game once the goals rained in. 3  
      Jamie McGrath – Replaced Middleton after coming off the bench last week but struggled to cope with the movement of the AZ midfield. Is miles better than he was able to show here. 2   
      Dylan Levitt – Showed some nice touches as always when in possession of the ball but couldn’t produce enough magic to stop AZ running over the top of them once the goals started to flow. 3  
      Steven Fletcher – Had a couple of openings in the first half but his job became an impossible one as AZ racked up the goals. Hopeless task from half an hour onwards. 3 
      Tony Watt – Flitted in and out of the game in the first half as AZ steamrollered United before being replaced by Middleton at the break. A night he will be eager to forget. 2  
      Subs – 
      Glenn Middleton (Watt 46) –  Thrown on at half-time to see if he could get United up the pitch but they lost a sixth within a minute. 3 
      Ilmari Niskanen (Niskanen 46) – Half-time sub with the score 5-0 is a thankless task and couldn’t provide a spark. 2 
      Scott McMann (Behich 54) – Replaced Behich with his team six goals down and struggling to cope with AZ’s movement. 2 
      Mathew Cudjoe (Fletcher 66) – Livewire striker thrown on to get experience of playing at this level. 3  
      Archie Meekison (Levitt 75) – Another kid thrown on to get a taste of the European stage. 2 

      Striker Vangelis Pavlidis, who bemoaned his rotten luck against Scottish clubs on Wednesday, grabbed a double and so did midfielder Tijjani Reijnders before Hakon Evjen twisted the knife with seconds to go.
      Within 45 minutes this equalled United’s worst-ever result in Europe, ironically their last game at this level – a 5-0 hammering by Dynamo Moscow ten years ago. 
      But it got worse than. Much worse. 
      Dani de Wit added a sixth almost straight from kick-off, with some more horrible defending the visitors’ downfall, before sub Mayckel Lahdo netted the seventh. 
      Most read in Football
      The 1,400-strong United support could do nothing but sit and take the taunts from the home support although plenty, sensibly, opted to cut and run early in order to get back to the bright lights of Amsterdam forty minutes away. 
      A trip that had kicked off with such promise following last week’s high-octane win at Tannadice had turned into calamity. 
      AZ started in much the same vein as seven days earlier, stroking the ball around confidently and trying to move the Tangerines back line out of place. 
      With the first leg lead, United had been in no hurry to do anything and taking an age to sort the free kick angered the home support, who jeered every time they slowed the game down. 
      United keeper Mark Birghitti was called into action for the first time on twenty minutes and what a stop he produced to keep the scores level. 
      AZ worked the ball from the right into the area for Hakon Evjen to shoot and even though it came through a screen of players, the Aussie stopper was down quickly to his left to turn it away. 
      But that was the high point and he was helpless to stop the first goal just two minutes later as AZ slickly sliced the Tangerines wide open. 
      Galloping left back Milos Kerkez, who had been dangerous all evening, pinged a one-two between himself and Rejinders, completely eliminating right-back Liam Smith and getting United’s defence on the rack. 
      With Charlie Mulgrew and Ryan Edwards backtracking, Kerkez slipped a fantastic low cross into the six-yard box for Pavlidis – and his scoring jinx against Scottish clubs came to a sudden end. 
      United came agonisingly close to the leveller just four minutes later but were denied by a simply incredible stop by Verhulst. 
      Smith fired a superb cross into the area for Fletcher, who was narrowly beaten to it by Reijnders before it spun to the back post towards Harkes. 
      The American did brilliantly to get a bicycle kick on target and it looked every inch a goal until the AZ keeper somehow got a touch to send it over. 
      And they were left to rue that moment as on the half-hour AZ went ahead in the tie for the first time – and the wheels came hurtling off their European adventure. 
      It was agonising for Levitt, who tried to stretch out and block a cross-field pass but didn’t get enough of a contact on it to steer it to one of his players, only sending it into the path of Reijnders. 
      With a sight of goal and United’s defence parted, the midfielder picked his spot across Birighitti and slammed the second beyond him. 
      The game threatened to get away from United now, with first Dani de Wit having a sight of goal and then Pavlidis almost capitalised on a Birighitti slip. 
      Things got messier on 35 minutes as AZ swaggered into an even more commanding lead, this time leaving United’s keeper looking daft. 
      He came off his line to gather a Evjen corner kick but missed it completely, leaving Pavlidis free to nod into an empty net from six yards. 
      The evening got even worse four minutes before the break as United simply couldn’t clear their lines, leaving Reijnders in acres of space to slam home from eight yards. 
      United’s fans, in fine voice before kick-off, sat in stunned silence watching their team be utterly demolished in such ruthless fashion. 
      And the humiliating fifth came right on half-time, a thunderbolt from outside the box from Evjen which gave Birghitti no chance as he watched it fly past. 
      Ross made two changes at the break, replacing Watt and Sibbald with Glenn Middleton and Ilmari Niskanen, but it made absolutely no difference whatsoever as the collapse continued within a minute of the restart. 
      This time Pantelis Hatzidiakos sent a ball in for Pavlidis, only for his shot to come off Mulgrew and roll for De Wit, who slammed home for six. 
      Seven came on 74 minutes with Lahdo providing the finish after being played in by Pavlidis. 
      Only the width of the post stopped it being eight – and a new record – with the final kick of the ball as Lahdo tried for another. 
      In the city of cheese, what a roasting this was.

warning, Mendes ‘pushing for Ronaldo exit’, Xavi wants Messi back
      The Scottish coach booted a ball at a ball-boy in the closing stages of their 1-0 defeat to Frankfurt, for which he was given a straight red card.
      Skipper Declan Rice will miss both legs of the play-offs having been handed a two-match Uefa ban for abusing a referee in that semi-final in the tunnel at half-time.
      After Aaron Cresswell was shown a 19th-minute red card, Rice shouted at ref Jesus Gil Manzano: “How can you be that bad, honestly? You’ve probably been f****** paid. F****** corruption.”
      The first leg of the play-off comes three days before welcoming Brighton to the London Stadium in the Prem, and the second leg is three days before a trip to Aston Villa.

      A taken aback Giorgio exclaimed: “Thank you, look at this! This is so great.”
      The 96-year-old was given the chance to touch the trophy himself and get up-close and personal to the prize.
      Giorgio was so overwhelmed by Roma’s kind gesture he wiped away a tear from his eye and looked visibly emotional.
      Thousands of Roma fans lined the streets of the Italian capital for a trophy parade after Mourinho guided his side to Europa Conference League glory in May.

      West Ham ace Rice banned two games for Europa League semi-final ref tirade & Moyes banned a game for separate incident

      by

      WEST HAM have been hit with a double whammy after both Declan Rice and boss David Moyes were handed bans by Uefa.The club’s star midfielder was caught on camera accusing officials of being “corrupt” in the tunnel after the Hammers were defeated at Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europa League.

      West Ham were beaten 1-0 on the night and 3-1 on aggregate in front of a white-hot atmosphere at the Deutsche Bank Park in last season’s semi-final.
      Tunnel cam footage emerged from the clash and shows the furious Rice confronting the Spanish referee Jesus Gil Manzan outside the changing-rooms.
      He was then heard shouting: “Ref! Ref! It is so poor. All night, it is so bad. How can you be that bad? Honestly.”
      He then turned to walk away and added: “You’ve probably been f***ing paid. F***ing corruption.”
