Table of Contents
The battle of the basement dwellers at Upton Park saw West Ham climb two places in the table to 13th with a 3-0 win over fellow strugglers Hull City.
The home side went ahead after just 130 seconds when Valon Behrami combined with Guillermo Franco before slotting past Boaz Myhill for his first goal for the club for just under 13 months.
Hull's plight got worse in the 52nd minute when Craig Fagan was dismissed in the 53rd minute for a second bookable offence.
West Ham took advantage and went 2-0 in front in the 59th minute when Julien Faubert's pin-point through ball put Carlton Cole in the clear and the England international ran on to nudge impressively past Myhill.
Hull were forced to play the last 10 minutes with nine men after Anthony Gardner was taken off on a stretcher with an ankle injury, with all three subs already on the pitch.
It made Hull's task impossible and the home side made it three in the final minute when Faubert sent a rising angled drive beyond Myhill.
