WEST HAM UNITED eased their Premier League relegation fears by snapping a run of three consecutive defeats with a 2-1 victory at home to Hull City on Wednesday.
Hull were reduced to 10 men mid-way through the first half when goalkeeper Allan McGregor was sent off for a foul on Mohamed Diame, with Mark Noble putting West Ham ahead from the resulting penalty.
Nikica Jelavic equalised early in the second half, only for an unfortunate own goal by Hull defender James Chester in the 54th minute to gift West Ham all three points.
