Michael Keane opens the scoring for Everton against West Ham

JARROD BOWEN’S deflected strike helped Nuno Espirito Santo start his reign as West Ham boss with a battling 1-1 draw at Everton.

Nuno was appointed Hammers manager on Saturday, tasked with turning around a side that had started the Premier League season with four defeats in five matches, leading to Graham Potter's sacking.

West Ham's dire run looked set to continue when they fell behind early on to Michael Keane’s header but while Everton hunted a second after the break, Bowen struck to guarantee the visitors a point.

‘As well as being the first goal of Nuno’s reign, Bowen became the first person from a visiting team to score at Everton's new Hill Dickinson Stadium, denying Toffees boss David Moyes a win over his former side.
