West Ham United moved a step closer to Premier League safety with a 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Saturday. The result mathematically confirmed the relegation of Wolverhampton Wanderers, managed by former West Ham boss Nuno EspΓrito Santo.
Michail Antonio gave the Hammers an early lead, but Palace's Jean-Philippe Mateta equalized before halftime. The point edges West Ham further from the bottom three, while Palace's season concludes with a mid-table finish.
The relegation of Wolves marks a swift return to the Championship after just one season back in the top flight. For West Ham manager David Moyes, the draw represents a crucial point in the fight for survival with a few games remaining.
