Half-Time Report: Callum Wilson double gives Bournemouth 2-0 lead against West Ham United

A Callum Wilson double gives Bournemouth a 2-0 half-time lead against West Ham United at Upton Park.

Two goals from Callum Wilson have given Bournemouth a 2-0 lead at half time against West Ham United at Upton Park.

Both sides made quick starts to the match, and it was West Ham who had the ball in the net first, only for Winston Reid's header from a corner to be chalked off by the referee for a push on Tommy Elphick.

The hosts soon found themselves behind, as Wilson met Simon Francis's cross to fire a low shot past Darren Randolph and score the Cherries' first ever Premier League goal on 11 minutes.

West Ham came close to finding a quick equaliser through Cheikou Kouyate, who headed over the bar from an Aaron Cresswell cross, but the Hammers struggled to get a foothold in the match.

Wilson then made it 2-0 to the visitors on 28 minutes as the striker latched onto a poor backpass by Cresswell to score from close range, before the striker spurned a chance for a quick hat-trick as his shot from the right hit the side netting.

Bournemouth came close to a third goal through Charlie Daniels, but his shot from long range went wide, before Max Gradel forced a save from Randolph on the stroke of half time.
