West Ham star Bowen 'buzzing' after scoring first Europa League goal

West Ham United forward Jarrod Bowen was "buzzing" after his first Europa League goal.


The Englishman struck West Ham's third and final goal in their 3-0 win over Genk on Thursday.

"It's good," Bowen told the club's website. "I should have had one in the first half. Even the one I scored I probably didn't finish it right but I said before the game I bet I'll score when I scuff it! But if you don't shoot you don't score. I'm buzzing with my first Europa League goal.

"It means everything, looking back and playing non-league... I remember scoring my first goal [for Hereford] against Alfreton in 2016/17. Now to score in the Europa League is a dream. I'm loving every minute."
