West Ham United were made to wait for the comfort of a 3-0 win over Derby County, with two late goals from substitutes finishing off a game that was far tighter than the scoreline suggests.
Joel Piroe put the hosts ahead in the fifth minute, and Edvin Austbø and Mohamadou Kanté, each scoring his first goal for the club, finished it in the 86th and 94th. It was West Ham's second win in five days and their first back-to-back wins since January.
Nuno Espirito Santo's side were dominant early, lost their rhythm after the break, and were grateful to a bench that arrived with fresh legs.
