Nathan Trott was an unused substitute as his teammate Jesse Lingard continued his stunning form with West Ham United by scoring twice in the first half to set them on course for a crucial victory over fellow Champions League hopefuls Leicester City.
The two sides came into the weekend occupying the last two Champions League spots before wins for Chelsea and Liverpool on Saturday nudged West Ham down to sixth place.
