West Ham Thrash Wolves to Climb Out of Relegation Zone

West Ham United delivered a statement performance in the Premier League, cruising to a dominant 4–0 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers and boosting their survival hopes in emphatic fashion.
The standout performers were Konstantinos Mavropanos and Valentín Castellanos, who both bagged braces in a ruthless attacking display. The breakthrough came just before half-time, when Mavropanos rose highest to meet a pinpoint cross from Jarrod Bowen, powering a header past the helpless goalkeeper.
The game was effectively decided shortly after the hour mark, as Castellanos produced a stunning two-goal burst in under two minutes, leaving Wolves reeling and the home crowd in full voice. His clinical finishing underlined West Ham’s urgency and belief in this crucial stage of the campaign.
Mavropanos then capped off a memorable evening with his second goal — an acrobatic volley that perfectly summed up the hosts’ dominance and confidence.
