The Hammers produced an excellent rearguard display to hold Chelsea to a point.
West Ham United goalkeeper Joe Hart has posted on Instagram after producing a marvellous display to keep out a handful of Chelsea’s attackers on Sunday afternoon at Stamford Bridge.
The 30-year-old produced a string of excellent saves at Stamford Bridge to help David Moyes’ side secure an excellent point against Antonio Conte’s struggling Chelsea, as Javier Hernandez cancelled out Cesar Azpilicueta’s opener.
Hart, who remains on loan from Manchester City, stopped Willian one-on-one with a superb save, before tipping Marcos Alonso’s piledriver over the bar in the second half. But perhaps his best came to keep out Olivier Giroud’s header.
The England international has been subject to huge criticism this season, which even saw Moyes drop the England stopper earlier this season. But now returning to the side, Hart posted on Instagram after his superb display.
Hart’s performance has seemingly won over critics, with many beforehand suggesting that he may even fail to book a place on the plane to Russia this summer.
But with Everton’s Jordan Pickford and Stoke City’s Jack Butland in contention alongside Hart, it remains to be seen whether Gareth Southgate will opt to hand Hart a second chance.
Hart will come up against England compatriot Butland on Monday night as the two sides take to the field in a week’s time at the London Stadium in what is a crucial clash at the bottom of the Premier League.
