West Ham vs Brighton LIVE: Premier League football as it happened at London Stadium

West Ham 2-2 Brighton
Premier League 2018-19
Venue: London Stadium

Marko Arnautovic's quickfire double rescued West Ham from another defeat by bogey side Brighton.

The Hammers were staring at a fourth loss in four meetings with Brighton since they were promoted after goals from Dale Stephens and Shane Duffy put the visitors in charge.

But two goals in two minutes from Austrian forward Arnautovic lifted the hoodoo as West Ham snatched a 2-2 draw.

All the goals came in the space of 12 second-half minutes of a contest which came to life after Brighton struck from two corners.

The drama was in stark contrast to a listless first half which had seen Andy Carroll handed his first start for precisely one year.
