West Ham United edged past Queens Park Rangers after extra time to reach the FA Cup fourth round, easing pressure on manager Nuno Espírito Santo. The 2-1 win, West Ham’s first since early November, was secured by January signing Taty Castellanos, whose header from Crysencio Summerville’s cross finally settled a tense London derby. QPR had forced extra time after Richard Kone’s equaliser, pushing their Premier League opponents to the limit and drawing pride from the display, according to manager Julien Stéphan. Summerville also impressed with one of his strongest performances in a West Ham shirt, while the match was marked by supporter unrest and reminders of the club’s wider struggles. Although the Cup victory provided temporary respite, Nuno admitted further reinforcements are needed as West Ham continue to battle poor league form and looming relegation concerns.
