M. Maiga (38')​

MOTM​

Winston Reid (7.5)​

A stellar defensive performance gave West Ham a much needed victory in their fight for promotion against Cagliari. The Italian side, with hopes of promotion of their own, started the game strong by intercepting wayward passes and controlling play in the West Ham end for the first 15 minutes of the game. However, with 38 minutes gone and against the run of play, Modibo Maiga found himself alone in front of goal with the ball at his feet courtesy of a rebound off the Italian GK. Looking around expecting to hear a whistle for offside, Maiga passed the ball into the net and watched as the referee pointed to the center circle to signal the goal was valid.​

A few Cagliari chances later, the Hammers left with a 1-0 lead and the all important three points. The win pushes them to 37 points with two games to play, while Cagliari's loss means they no longer control their own destiny in the fight for promotion.​

M.Pinilla (51') D.Dessena

Cagliari fortunate to take all three points as Lady Luck was with the Sardinians tonight- as Di Natale was stopped at point blanked range and the rebound attempt from Muriel from 4 yards into an open net was skied into the stands. D.Dessena curls in a ball into the box and M.Pinilla dives for it and re directs for the only goal of the Match. The Match ends tensely for the Away side as Di Natale free kick hits the top post and a mad scramble for the ball in front of goal could have ended this match in a Draw. As it stands Cagliari avenges their most devastating loss of the Campaign by stealing all three points Away.
