VIDEO: Tomas Soucek sends West Ham into the next round of the cup, where they will face the toughest possible opponent

You could say that West Ham are doing well on all fronts, which was confirmed on Wednesday night at Lincoln, where they won thanks to a goal by Tomáš Souček. However, they will face Arsenal in the next round of the EFL Cup.

West Ham’s victory was not easy to come by despite the great dominance of the visiting team. David Moyes made a substitution in the 66th minute, sending on the pair of Edson Álvarez and Divin Mubama.

Shortly after, the Hammers were awarded a corner kick, which the Czech midfielder, who had played a very good game, managed to finish and send his team into the eighth round.

However, they will face their toughest possible opponent Arsenal on 31 October. The other very attractive match will be Manchester United vs. Newcastle. Two other strong teams – Chelsea and Liverpool – are also in the semi-finals.

Already now the team from the capital of England is more successful than in the last edition, in which they finished in the last 16 after defeat to Blackburn, moreover on their home ground.

But West Ham are also doing well in other competitions. It started the Europa League with a win over TSC and in the Premier League it has kept pace with the top teams, having lost points so far only to a 1-1 draw with Bournemouth and then two defeats to Manchester City and Liverpool.

On the other hand, it managed to win against Chelsea, Brighton and also Luton. He can now confirm his good form again in the league when Sheffield United visit London.

For Soucek it was his 7th game of the current season, during which he has already scored 2 goals and an assist.

For Moyes, he is clearly one of the key figures in the current team as he is undoubtedly one of the best players playing.
