Ghana international Mohammed Kudus
Ghana international Mohammed Kudus delivered an outstanding performance on his return from injury as West Ham United shared the spoils with Bournemouth in the Premier League.
The Black Stars midfielder lasted 84 minutes as he made a triumphant return from injury on Saturday afternoon.
Kudus marked his comeback with an assist, helping the Hammers secure an important draw at the London Stadium.
Before this game, the former Ajax star had missed the side’s 1-0 defeat to Wolves on Tuesday night due to an injury setback.
West Ham were handed an early scare after Brazilian striker Evanilson gave Bournemouth the lead in the 38th minute, with the visitors going into the break ahead.
The hosts made a strong start to the second half, grabbing the equalizer through German international Niclas Füllkrug in the 61st minute.
Seven minutes later, the Hammers found the net again to take the lead through Jarrod Bowen, who was set up by Kudus.
However, the Cherries showed determination and resilience in the highly competitive clash, leveling the score in the 79th minute through Evanilson once again, as the game ended in a stalemate.
Kudus was replaced in the 84th minute by Brazilian youngster Luis Guilherme.
The Ghanaian international has struggled to replicate his impressive debut-season form, scoring only three goals and providing three assists in 28 appearances. A 13-game goal drought and a five-game suspension have further hindered his progress.
Meanwhile, his compatriot Antoine Semenyo lasted the entire duration of the match for Bournemouth.
