West Ham Stun Chelsea to Reach EFL Cup Quarterfinals
London, England - West Ham United pulled off a major upset in the EFL Cup, defeating Chelsea 2-0 at the London Stadium on Wednesday night. The Hammers' victory sends them through to the quarterfinals of the competition, where they will face a tough test against a yet-to-be-determined opponent.
The match was a tightly contested affair, with both teams creating chances but neither able to find the back of the net in the first half. However, West Ham's pressure eventually told in the 65th minute, when Declan Rice scored the opener with a powerful header from a corner kick.
The Hammers doubled their lead just 10 minutes later, when Michail Antonio latched onto a through ball and slotted past Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga. The goal was Antonio's 10th of the season, and it proved to be the winner as West Ham held on for the shutout victory.
The win is a significant one for West Ham, who have struggled for consistency in the Premier League this season. It also marks a major upset, as Chelsea were heavily favored to win the match. The Blues have been struggling for form in recent weeks, and this defeat will only add to their woes.
"We're delighted to have won the game," said West Ham manager David Moyes. "It was a tough match, but we deserved the victory. We worked hard and created chances, and we're proud to have come out on top."
West Ham will now face a tough test in the quarterfinals, where they will be looking to continue their cup run and make a deep push in the competition.
