West Ham lost 2-0 to Brentford in a Premier League match, marking their first home defeat under new manager Nuno Espirito Santo and extending their run of poor form. The loss, which came amid a fan-led boycott protesting club ownership, saw Brentford dominate with 22 shots on goal, scoring through Igor Thiago and Mathias Jensen, with Jensen’s late goal sealing the win. Nuno admitted the team’s performance was “not good enough,” citing defensive lapses and growing fan anxiety. Brentford’s manager Keith Andrews called it their “most complete performance of the season,” highlighting control and intensity. The result left West Ham in 19th place with just four points from eight games.
