Close, but no cigar. West Ham’s crusade in Europe is over, but it took a cruel deflection to extinguish the flame.
Any sober assessment of the Irons’ 37th European tie in three seasons must include the admission that, over the two legs, they fell just short in the final third. But it took former Celtic winger Jeremy Frimpong’s spawn 89th-minute equaliser, which took a huge deflection off Aaron Cresswell, to seal Bayer’s passage into the Europa League semi-finals.
“We all want to continue this European journey,” said the Moyesiah. “This season has been the toughest of our three campaigns so far, but we all want to make it part of this club’s DNA.” Bowen almost levelled the tie on aggregate from a Mohammed Kudus cross but his volley was blocked by Kovar’s feet - and then it all kicked off.
