West Ham United defeats Lincoln City 6-0

West Ham United secured a 6-0 victory against Lincoln City, highlighted by a significant performance from Konstantinos Mavropanos, who scored his fifth goal of the season from a set-piece.

Striker Pablo Felipe also scored his first league goal for the club during the match. Despite a frustrating first half where West Ham struggled to break down a nine-man Lincoln City side, tactical changes implemented by Nuno Espirito Santo at halftime improved the team's attacking penetration. The shift to a back-three formation following the introduction of Edvin Austbo helped increase the team's open-play expected goals (xG) in the second half.
