Despite his poor outing with the Black Stars of Ghana during the international break, the 24-year-old looked to have put it all behind him as he fired home from a Jarrod Bowen’s cutback to break the deadlock 18 minutes into the game in North London.

West Ham United however conceded four goals, three of which came in the second-half through Yves Bissouma, Heung-Min Son and an Alphonso Areola own goal, adding to Dejan Kulusevski’s first-half equalizer.
