West Ham assistant coach Nikola Jurcevic was happy with their performance in yesterday's 2-2 draw against Czech side FC Slovacko.

The Hammers were the dominant force at the Stadion Rohrbach in Austria and looked well set for victory when Mark Noble and Ashley Fletcher netted in 16 minutes either side of the interval, only for Slovacko man Eldar Civic to notch twice in the final five minutes.

Jurcevic told whufc.com: “It was a very important test for us, because we were playing a similar opponent to those who we will face in the Europa League qualification games.

“I think we played very well for most of the game, but in the finish did not have enough concentration for those final minutes. We made a lot of changes and some players were tired too.

“However, overall we can be satisfied with this match because we trained hard yesterday, we trained hard this morning and we played also without some of our important players.

“All together, I think it was a good performance from our team. Results are not so important in these test games, it is much more important is to be fit for our games in Europa League qualification and the Premier League."
