West Ham United forward Jarrod Bowen displayed empathy towards midfielder Mohammed Kudus following his missed scoring opportunities during their triumphant Premier League encounter against Brentford on Monday evening.
In a highly anticipated resurgence, the Hammers secured a resounding 4-2 victory, with Bowen notably securing a hat-trick and Kudus providing a pivotal assist.
Despite Kudus’ instrumental contribution, he was unable to capitalize on goal-scoring opportunities to add to his six-goal tally in the league since his transfer from Ajax Amsterdam.
Reflecting on Kudus’ performance, Bowen expressed understanding, stating, “Mo was unlucky not to find the net tonight, but his exceptional assist for me showcased the quality we possess.”
Kudus was substituted in the 94th minute as West Ham climbed to eighth place in the Premier League standings.
The team’s next challenge awaits as they face an away fixture against Everton on Saturday, March 2, with kickoff scheduled for 15:00 GMT.
