West Ham secured a decisive 6-0 victory over Lincoln on Wednesday, though Israeli player Manor Solomon did not significantly contribute to the win. Solomon, who started the match, was substituted in the 58th minute after a lackluster performance, receiving a low rating of 6.5 from SofaScore, higher only than Joel Asoro's 6.3.
Adding to Solomon's concerns, Edvin Opstabo, a player competing for his position, entered the game at halftime. Opstabo, who plays on the left wing, the same position Solomon occupied in the first half, was moved aside but remained on the field. Within three minutes of his substitution, Opstabo scored a goal.
Following the match, English media praised Opstabo. Dawsan Thomas, a writer for The Athletic covering West Ham, noted Opstabo's energy, attacking drive, and speed, suggesting he deserves to start in the upcoming game against Swansea.
