Alan Shearer, the legendary Premier League goalscorer, is no stranger to the art of scoring goals. After witnessing West Ham United’s impressive win on Sunday, he couldn’t help but praise one standout player.
As the Hammers put an end to their winless streak in a remarkable fashion at the City Ground, football icon Shearer was in awe of the performance. Particularly, he was impressed by the goal-scoring prowess of West Ham United’s star player.
Jarrod Bowen, the captain of the team, showcased his skill by finding the back of the net with a finish that left spectators in awe. His goal, lauded by former players like Matthew Upson and Alan Pardew, was described as ‘world-class’ and ‘incredible’. Shearer, speaking on The Rest is Football podcast, emphasized the difficulty and finesse of Bowen’s finish, highlighting the player’s remarkable talent.
Bowen’s goal, which came after a brilliant run from Crysencio Summerville, showcased his exceptional ability to strike the ball with precision and finesse. Shearer commended Bowen for his composure and skill in delivering a crucial goal for his team, especially following recent challenges faced by the player.
The win, which saw West Ham secure a 3-0 victory, was a significant moment for the team and their manager, Graham Potter. With Callum Wilson also contributing to the win with a goal, the match was a confidence booster for the squad heading into the upcoming international break.
In a post-match press conference, Wilson expressed his regret for denying Bowen a potential goal of the season contender. The win was crucial for both West Ham and Forest, with Lineker and Shearer acknowledging the importance of the result for Potter and his team in light of recent difficulties.
The victory not only boosted morale for West Ham but also highlighted Bowen’s exceptional talent and contribution to the team’s success on the field. As the team looks ahead to future challenges, Bowen’s performance has certainly left a lasting impression on football fans and pundits alike.
