| West Ham 3-3 Fulham Phillipe Christanval's first goal for Fulham saw them deny West Ham, who had substitute Bobby Zamora sent off. Tomasz Radzinski turned in Heidar Helguson's header to open the scoring on 16 minutes before Zamora notched his 100th league goal with a low shot. Yossi Benayoun chipped in after the break to put West Ham ahead but Brian McBride levelled with a header. Benayoun then rounded Jan Lastuvka for his second but Christanval smashed home an equaliser in stoppage time. Interview: Chris Coleman It was hard on West Ham and the outstanding Benayoun in particular, who had cleared Franck Queudrue's header off the line moments before the late leveller. 606: DEBATE That was West Ham's best chance to really put Wigan and the like under pressure - and we blew it again AA 606: Have your say And all game long he had overshadowed his team's new signings Luis Boa Morte - playing against his old club - and Nigel Quashie. Indeed, former Fulham skipper Boa Morte could have, himself, ensured his old employers were defeated had he done better with two good chances. But the Portuguese forward could not direct his efforts goalwards to start paying off his transfer fee. It was a bad day all round for West Ham's forward line as Carlos Tevez went off injured early on and his replacement Zamora was extremely unfortunate to be sent off on 76 minutes after a sliding challenge. It turned sour Zamora's joy at scoring a landmark goal, which also brought his side level following Radzinski's opener. Radzinski was fortunate to be in the way and divert Helguson's header into the net. Zamora's equaliser was borne of strength, power and a clinical finish. Seconds after the restart, Benayoun put West Ham ahead with an exquisite chip and it appeared the hosts would overpower their opponents. But the visitors battled back bravely and McBride nodded in to restore parity again. However, when Benayoun took advantage of some sloppy defending and kept his feet after rounding the keeper to poke home, it seem the result was set. Until, that is, Christanval found himself in front of goal with the ball at his feet and duly accepted the chance to earn his side a draw.
