    Lingard double puts West Ham back in top four

    Jesse Lingard continued his fine form with two goals as West Ham United returned to the top four with a 3-2 win over Leicester City at London Stadium.

    West Ham went ahead on 29 minutes with a fantastic first-time finish from Lingard, who swept in Vladimir Coufal's cross on the half-volley from the edge of the penalty area.

    Lingard scored again on 44 minutes, tapping into an empty net after Jarrod Bowen beat Kasper Schmeichel to the ball.

    Bowen added the Hammers' third when he turned in Tomas Soucek's pass three minutes into the second half.

    Kelechi Iheanacho set up a tense finale with two goals in the final 20 minutes.

    First the Nigerian finished on the turn after being set up by Ricardo Pereira before he fired in from close range in stoppage time.

    West Ham held on to return to fourth place on 55 points, a point and a position behind Leicester.
