• 

  Ryan Fredericks – 7. Had his hands full with Alonso and Pulisic but stuck to his task well. EPA

• 

  Issa Diop – 6. Tripped Christian Pulisic for Chelsea’s penalty but was solid for the rest of the game. Reuters

• 

  Angelo Ogbonna – 7. West Ham’s best defender on the night. Handled the Chelsea pressure well and contained Tammy Abraham without breaking a sweat. Reuters

• 

  Aaron Cresswell – 7. Unable to attack for most of the game but defended well. Reuters

• 

  Declan Rice – 6. Fouled Pulisic that lead to Willian’s free-kick but defended well with Chelsea retaining most of the possession. Reuters

• 

  Tomas Soucek – 8. Second time lucky for the Czech who saw his first goal harshly cancelled by VAR before heading home West Ham’s equaliser. EPA

• 

  Jarrod Bowen – 8. Wonderful corner for Soucek’s header and claimed his second assist with a smart pass in to Antonio. AFP

• 

  Pablo Fornals – 5. A subdued performance. Reuters

• 

  Manuel Lanzini – 6. West Ham’s chief creator was unable to influence the game. Reuters

• 

  Michail Antonio – 10. West Ham’s most dangerous threat all night and got his reward by scoring his side’s second goal before setting up the winner. Star man. AFP

• 

  SUBS: Jack Wilshere (68’) – 5. Didn’t make any real impact on the game. EPA

• 

  Andriy Yarmolenko (78’) – 8. Superb finish to secure his side a precious three points. A classy cameo from a classy player. Reuters

• 

  Fabián Balbuena (90+3') - NA. No time to make an impact. AFP

• 

  CHELSEA RATINGS: Kepa Arrizabalaga – 5. Another shaky night from the Spaniard. Couldn’t do too much about the goals but he failed to command his area as Chelsea always looked fragile from set pieces. AFP

• 

  Cesar Azpilicueta – 4. Lost his battle with Soucek for his equalising goal and was lacking his usual poise and reliability. Reuters

• 

  Andreas Christensen – 5. The best of a bad bunch from Chelsea’s defenders, but when your team concedes three goals to a side fighting relegation, then no one deserves good marks. AFP

• 

  Antonio Rudiger – 4. Was one of Chelsea’s best passers but he gets paid to defend and he was well short of his best. Easily beaten by Yarmolenko when one-on-one to allow the Ukrainian to score the decisive goal. Reuters

• 

  Marcos Alonso – 5. Plenty of endeavour in his attacking forays but never posed much of a threat. Defensively he did OK until leaving his backline horribly exposed on the counter that led to Yarmolenko’s winner. AFP

• 

  N’Golo Kante – 5. Typically strong in the tackle and broke up play but left his defence was exposed on the counter-attack. Reuters

• 

  Mateo Kovacic – 6. Chelsea’s best midfielder in the first half but was replaced by Mason Mount early after the break as Frank Lampard went more attacking. EPA

• 

  Ross Barkley – 5. Anonymous for an hour before making way for Ruben Loftus-Cheek. EPA

• 

  Christian Pulisic – 7. Won both set pieces that led to Chelsea’s two goals. Was not afforded the space that allowed him to run at West Ham’s defence but was still his team’s most dangerous attacking player. AFP

• 

  Willian – 8. Cool as you like to score the opening goal from the penalty spot before scoring his second with a stunning free-kick. EPA

• 

  Tammy Abraham – 3. A night to forget at both ends of the pitch for the striker. Offered no threat in the West Ham area and made a mess of his attempt to clear Soucek’s header. EPA

• 

  SUBS: Mason Mount (53’) – 4. Did he touch the ball? Reuters

• 

  Olivier Giroud (63’) – 4. Failed to connect with a decent effort and struggled to impose himself on the game. Reuters

• 

  Ruben Loftus-Cheek (63’) – 5. Offered Chelsea an outlet between the lines but is still well short of his best after a lengthy injury. Reuters

Substitute Andriy Yarmolenko's late strike earned West Ham United a precious 3-2 victory over Chelsea in a topsy-turvy Premier League derby.

The Ukraine winger raced clear in the 89th-minute to plant a shot past Kepa Arrizabalaga and clinch three vital points in West Ham's battle to avoid relegation.

Willian had put Chelsea in front in the 41st-minute from the penalty spot but Tomas Soucek, who had already had a goal ruled out by VAR, headed the hosts level on the stroke of halftime.

Michail Antonio then turned in Jarrod Bowen's cross shortly after the break to give the hosts the lead.

Willian's majestic 72nd-minute free kick which beat Lukasz Fabianski and crashed in off the post set up a frenetic finale.

With Chelsea seeking a winner they were caught on the break and Yarmolenko kept his cool to earn West Ham a league double over Frank Lampard's side who wasted the chance to move into third spot in their chase for a Champions League place.

West Ham moved up to 16th spot, three points above the relegation zone.
