Manchester City – West Ham United

1. Can Trevor Brooking turn the Hammers around? Or will old pal Kevin Keegan send his team into the First Division. Join us at 14.00 BST.

2. Trevor names the same side that beat Boro on Monday while his old compadre also sticks with the same line-up.

3. City get the game underway. West Ham have 90 minutes to save their bacon.

4. 1'

   Ball goes back to James. Dunne nearly lets Defoe in but recovers well.

5. 1'

   Anelka holds the ball up, gets to the by-line and Johnson has to head away. Barton gets in a shot but James is not troubled.

6. 3'

   Some action down the touchline. Wright-Phillips at the centre of it. Then Cole cuts past Dunne and is up-ended. Free-kick....

7. 4'

   Cole is limping badly. Defoe tries his luck with a shot but Schmeichel is equal to the task.

8. 5'

   Long ball from Sommeil finds Anelka - who else? - offside.

9. 6'

   Bad lay-off from a portly-looking Fowler. Yet to fire at Maine Road.

10. 6'

    Pearce concedes a corner from a Benarbia ball. The Algerian will take....

11. 7'

    Ferdinand nods on to Defoe. He tries to chip but giant Dane Schmeichel catches the ball. Brooking off his seat.

12. 8'

    Cole gets a chance to shoot. He skews his effort.

13. 9'

    Long ball nearly found Anelka, who shrugs off a dithering Repka. James is alert and gets the ball.

14. 10'

    Good run from Johnson wins a throw-in. He launches it himself and earns a corner.

15. 11'

    Brevett takes. Distin can only nod behind.

16. 12'

    Lomas' flick goes the wrong way. Foe on the counter, but Cisse gets back well. Brevett clears from the edge of the area.

17. 13'

    Schmeichel shanks a kick into the stand. Age catching up?

18. 15'

    Anelka gets a shot in. James palms away. Fowler comes in to knock in but Brevett gets back and kicks the ball and Fowler's head. Nerves aplenty in the Hammers backline.

19. 16'

    Free-kick knocked to Barton but the ball rebounds. Jensen wastes a chance to attack by shinning it into Row Z.

20. 17'

    Barton and Cole clash. Cole is in the wars again.

21. 18'

    Lomas and Sinclair fail to build an attack. West Ham need more up-front.

22. 20'

    Calamity from James lets in Anelka. The angle is too deep and Fowler gets the ball. He's smothered and it's a corner.

23. 20'

    Brevett nearly scores in his own net. But Lomas comes away and wins a corner.

24. 21'

    Schmeichel is fouled when the corner comes in.

25. 22'

    Wright-Phillips shoots over the bar from range.

26. 22'

    Barton throwing his weight around in midfield.

27. 24'

    Cole tries to shoot from miles away. What a waste.

28. 25'

    Dunne, on the attack, wins a corner. Anelka in acres of space heads over.

29. 26'

    Cole makes a chance but Lomas fires wide.

30. 28'

    Wright-Phillips tries to get through but runs into a crowd. Not much happening here at Maine Road.

31. 30'

    Anelka makes a burst out on the right. He cuts it in and Fowler stick out a boot to knock wide. Hammers were wide open again. The 1996 model Fowler would be fancied to score there.

32. 30'

    Ferdinand gets a chance and smashes over. Brooking is like a cat on a hot tin roof. He'll be very disappointed with that.

33. 31'

    Repka steps in to stop a City attack. Not often you say things like that.

34. 32'

    Anelka makes a poor pass when Fowler had a chance to go through on goal.

35. 32'

    Nice flick from Benarbia but Anelka is offside - just. Or is he?

36. 35'

    West Ham again listless in attack. City having the better of the play in a game which, quite frankly, ain't much of a spectacle.

37. 35'

    Brevett hoofs clear. Dunne on the charge again to win a corner.

38. 35'

    James makes another gaffe and goes unpunished. West Ham clear.

39. 37'

    Fowler needed to recover his old form to make a through ball. Lay off the pies, Robbie. You know it makes sense.

40. 39'

    Anelka gets clear again from a Bernarbia pass. But Johnson, again impressive, stops him in his tracks.

41. 40'

    Great ball from Cisse. Ferdinand on the end of it but Schmeichel, not for the first time, denies him. Straight away the Dane gives Sir Les the ball only for an inexplicable miss to occur.

42. 41'

    Dunne chases hard to win a corner. Hit across to Jensen who drills it into James.

43. 41'

    Dunne shows surprising poise in showing a clean pair of heels to Sir Les.

44. 42'

    Cole is stopped in his tracks. He's been unable to influence affairs.

45. 45'

    Wright-Phillips goes through, looks to be fouled but stays on his feet. West Ham's defence in disarray. Again.

46. 45'

    Half-time comes and West Ham must be worried. They've had their chances but City have dominated.

47. 45'

    What does a Trevor Brooking hairdryer teamtalk sound like? His new charges may soon find out. Will he swear? Sadly Soccernet cannot bring you live commentary from the Minor Road dressing rooms. Which is a shame.

48. 45'

    Eduoard Cisse makes way for Freddie Kanoute for the Hammers. Trev getting twitchy?

49. 45'

    West Ham kick off after a huddle. Not a cuddle.

50. 47'

    Johnson makes his first mistake in conceding a throw. Wright-Phillips gets a chance to shoot, breathes the chance and hammers an effort off a defender. Corner ball.

51. 47'

    Foe flicks on. Fowler lurks with intent but Johnson shows calm in chesting back to James.

52. 48'

    Defoe goes through, nice flick to Ferdinand but Barton steals when the goal was gaping.

53. 49'

    Sinclair wins a corner. Poorly taken by Cole.

54. 49'

    Ferdinand goes clear. Schmeichel makes a save even though it was offside. Ferdinand looks hurt too.

55. 51'

    The stretcher's on. The end for Sir Les? Possibly for his career - that looks to be a leg break.

56. 54'

    A massive delay in play for the injury to stricken Les. Hutchison comes on to replace him.

57. 55'

    Trevor Brooking really suffering on the edge of the touchline. Johnson saves his nerves with a last-ditch tackle on Wright-Phillips.

58. 57'

    Anelka crosses after a typical run. Brevett knocks behind for a corner.

59. 57'

    Kanoute offside when the Hammers tried to break.

60. 58'

    Schmeichel clears when Johnson, on the run, threatens hard.

61. 59'

    Anelka wins a corner. But City are over-deliberate in attack.

62. 61'

    Kanoute again offside when a cross came in.

63. 62'

    Defoe doesn't receive a return pass from Kanoute when the Frenchman was in a promising position.

64. 63'

    Cross from Dunne. A hesitant Hammers defence get it clear.

65. 64'

    Dunne wins a free-kick. Bernabia's kick goes off a defender and James claims.

66. 66'

    Foe heads wide under pressure from Pearce but the ref sees no foul.

67. 67'

    Anelka is greedy after making space but then delivers a pea-roller from fully forty yards.

68. 68'

    West Ham free-kick. Headed away. Barton can't do anything with it.

69. 69'

    Sinclair is fouled. West Ham can attack but Cole is poor in possession. Johnson makes a mess and gives away a throw.

70. 71'

    Robbie Fowler, again ineffective, goes off. Macken comes on. Belmadi replaces Bernarbia. The F-plan diet is required for Robbie.

71. 72'

    James claims the ball on the edge of the box. Nearly handballed it too.

72. 73'

    West Ham corner. Brevett takes. Chaos as Lomas gets in a header. Defoe's hook is headed out by Jensen. Defoe gets a chance to shoot but Barton blocks him. Trevor torture!

73. 74'

    James flaps again as a Dunne ball comes in. West Ham go clear. Defoe is stopped. Sommeil gets involved with Hutchison. Yellow card to the Frenchman.

74. 77'

    Pearce goes down injured. He makes his way back on rather gingerly.

75. 77'

    Belmadi finds space to shoot but misses the target.

76. 79'

    A comedic throw-in from Dunne. West Ham break but Cole, off his game all game, gives it away.

77. 80'

    West Ham corner. The ball comes in to the area from Cole, rattles off Hutchison, Kanoute tries his best to miss but scores. 1-0 to the Hammers. Brooking in excelsis, punching the air and smiling broadly.

78. 80'

    Defoe gets around Sommeil but the defender recovers well.

79. 82'

    City corner. Foe nearly got a shot in but Johnson clears.

80. 83'

    Anelka shows great pace. He carves open the defence, nice dummy from Barton but Belmadi thrashes over.

81. 84'

    Christian Dailly on for Pearce. Religious periodical that he is.

82. 85'

    Lomas fighting hard. West Ham must try not to get ragged.

83. 85'

    Defoe booked for kicking the ball into the back of the net.

84. 87'

    Shaun Goater on for City. His penultimate home game as a Lazer Blue hero.

85. 88'

    Hutchison tries to keep the ball in a corner. Plenty of time left after that Sir Les injury though.

86. 88'

    Long Schmeichel throw - typically long - is way off beam .

87. 90'

    Six minutes of extra-time. Just like at Bolton.

88. 90'

    Schmeichel again muffs a clearance. West Ham dominating possession still but Defoe concedes a free-kick.

89. 90'

    Belmadi to take. Ball headed away. Wright-Phillips shoots just over.

90. 90'

    Repka puts Trevor through the mill with a chest back to James.

91. 90'

    Sinclair stopped by Sommeil. Anelka is nudged over by Johnson. Another free-kick.

92. 90'

    Belmadi, after some deliberation, drifts his free-kick wide of the goal.

93. 90'

    The referee blows his whistle and West Ham and Trevor Brooking are still alive. Still in it. They've still got it all to do but that Kanoute scuffer means there's still life in the relegation battle yet.
