West Ham United’s first match of the 2019/20 Premier League season ended in defeat as reigning champions Manchester City won 5-0 at London Stadium.
A stroke of luck gave City their opening goal on 25 minutes as Issa Diop’s clearance deflected into the net off of Gabriel Jesus, while Raheem Sterling doubled the lead six minutes into the second period.
The England winger chipped Fabianski to give City their third before substitute Sergio Aguero stroked home a penalty at the second attempt and Sterling completed his hat-trick to ensure the Hammers were defeated.
