West Ham vs Cardiff 2-0
Struggling West Ham lifted the pressure on manager Sam Allardyce with a battling win at Cardiff City.
The visitors had to survive a
serious injury to Guy Demel
and the sending-off of James Tomkins to claim their first Premier League win in seven attempts.
West Ham led when Carlton Cole was picked out by Matt Jarvis, before Mark Noble's late breakaway settled things.
It ruined Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's league debut as Cardiff boss as his side replaced West Ham in the bottom three.
Despite public support from West Ham co-owners David Gold and David Sullivan, Allardyce brought his team to the Welsh capital second-bottom and three points behind their hosts.
On top of that were humbling defeats in their previous two matches, with a 5-0 loss to Championship side Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup followed by a 6-0 defeat by Manchester City in the Capital One Cup semi-final first leg.
