Sundays Premier Review

A review of Sunday's action in the Premier League as West Ham secured a 1-0 win over Bournemouth at the London Stadium.

Michail Antonio's late winner ensured West Ham christened the London Stadium with a 1-0 victory over Bournemouth.

The Hammers welcomed the Premier League into their new home for the first time and got off to a winning start when Antonio crashed in a header five minutes from time.

The cause was helped by Bournemouth's Harry Arter, who eight minutes earlier had been shown the stadium's first red card.

The match will not live long in the memory but Hammers boss Slaven Bilic will not mind as his side collected their first points of the season.

Cristhian Stuani handed Aitor Karanka his first Premier League victory as Middlesbrough claimed the Wear-Tees derby honours 2-1 at Sunderland.

Stuani's first-half double secured the three points at the Stadium of Light, although the Teessiders had to weather a second-half fightback after David Moyes' men gave themselves a chance with Patrick van Aanholt's 71st-minute strike.

But to the disappointment of the locals among a crowd of 43,515, it was the top-flight newcomers who emerged victorious on an afternoon when the Black Cats, who have not won a Premier League game in August or September since 2012, were made to pay for both defensive frailty and wayward finishing.
