West Ham United suffered a humiliating defeat in Cardiff, trailing 3-0 at halftime in a match that saw Israeli player Manor Solomon return to the starting lineup. The team is on track for a third consecutive loss, intensifying pressure at the club.

Following the dismissal of coach Nuno Espírito Santo and the appointment of Scott Parker, the 46-year-old Englishman took charge on the sidelines at Cardiff Stadium. Parker, who previously played for the club between 2007 and 2011, faces the immediate challenge of revitalizing West Ham.

Cardiff's the player was the standout performer, scoring a hat-trick. He opened the scoring in the 11th minute with a powerful shot, converted a penalty in the 37th minute, and added a header from a corner in the 39th minute, with Solomon close by for the first goal but unable to intervene.

The player's third goal was assisted by Joel Bagan, who had previously appeared as a substitute for Ireland in matches against Israel. Cardiff's team is notably Irish, with coach Brian Barry-Murphy also being Irish.
