Nathan Trott’s West Ham United Premier Division 2 manager Terry Westley admitted his side weren’t at their best against Norwich City, but was delighted with the way they grinded out the three points at Carrow Road.
West Ham left it late against Norwich but managed to break the deadlock after Toni Martinez scored a rebound after his initial penalty was saved.
Marcus Browne made sure of the points in stoppage time after a delicate cut back by Noha Sylvestre to ensure the Hammers travelled back to London with the three points.
“I don’t think we were at our best tonight but we managed to grind it out in the end,” said Westley.
“I think we were more powerful than them, created more opportunities and in the end, albeit in the dying minutes, got a deserved win.
“Early on, we had the momentum. We had one or two opportunities but we weren’t as sharp as what we have been.”
Trott made a magnificent save diving to his left to deny Norwich the lead in the second half.
