Olympiacos fans received a stern warning about prohibited items upon arriving in East London. However, the star-studded list didn’t include West Ham’s Lucas Paqueta, who stole the spotlight in a 73rd-minute moment of brilliance.

Despite initially being flagged offside, VAR intervened, confirming Paqueta’s onside position from James Ward-Prowse’s clever delivery. This beautiful volley secured West Ham’s victory in an otherwise lackluster match, putting them in pole position to top their Europa League group.

With skipper Kurt Zouma absent due to a knee injury, Konstantinos Mavropanos faced his compatriots. Jarrod Bowen led the line, highlighting David Moyes’ preference for a free-flowing attacking trio of Bowen, Paqueta, and Mohamed Kudus.

West Ham’s frustration was evident as they struggled to create opportunities, with Olympiacos resorting to time-wasting tactics. The tense match concluded with Olympiacos threatening in the final seconds, hitting the post, but the Irons held on for a hard-fought victory.
