West Ham's forgotten man Andriy Yarmolenko boosted their survival hopes as he climbed off the bench to secure a last-gasp 3-2 win for the Hammers and dent Chelsea's bid for Champions League qualification.

The Ukrainian, who has spent most of the season missing through injury, stunned Chelsea with a minute remaining to lift West Ham three points clear of the relegation zone.

In a dramatic evening at the London Stadium Willian, who had given Chelsea the lead with a first-half penalty, pegged West Ham back to 2-2 with a spectacular free-kick.

West Ham forward Michail Antonio speaks to Sky Sports: "It is massive [the win]. There's so many games where we've been so close and today we managed to get a goal, get one taken away from us. To get the winner in the end, shows the grit and belief we've got and we'll keep fighting to the end. We just had that confidence and belief today. We had a goal taken away from us and we came from a goal down."
