West Ham midfielder Tomas Soucek admits they were left disappointed after their 1-1 draw with Burnley.

Soucek grabbed the equaliser for the hosts.

“We are disappointed with the draw," Soucek told the club's website. “I said before the game we wanted three points – that would have been massive for us because we want to be higher in the table, but we lost two points.

“We are disappointed – the first half wasn't so good, but we played well in the second half and created so many chances.

“We tried to finish, but Pope made some excellent saves."

The Hammers started the game on the front foot, but were rocked by a nasty injury to Burnley's Ashley Westwood, which saw the game stop for seven minutes.

The Clarets opened the scoring through Wout Weghorst shortly afterwards, and Souček admitted the Hammers didn't handle that moment well, while sending his best wishes to the stricken Westwood.

“It was a horrible injury, so I hope Ashley Westwood will be okay soon," he said. “I wish him all the best. This can happen in football but he was very unlucky and I keep my fingers crossed for him.

“We reacted badly to that, and the couple of things that happened around the stadium, and within five minutes they were 1-0 up.

“Burnley reacted better to that moment and we have to learn from that to be ready for anything."
