West Ham United goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski has taken to Instagram to express his delight at his side’s win against Fulham.

The Hammers got the better of Fulham 1-0 at the London Stadium in the Premier League on Saturday evening.

Tomas Soucek scored the only goal of the match in the first minute of injury time from a Said Benrahma pass.

However, just minutes later Benrahma gave away a penalty when he committed a foul on Tom Cairney.

Ademola Lookman failed to convert the Panenka-style spot kick, with West Ham goalkeeper Fabianski making the save with ease.

The former Arsenal goalkeeper has expressed his delight at the win for West Ham on Instagram.

Meanwhile, former Queens Park Rangers forward Rodney Marsh thinks that the penalty should have been retaken, as Fabianski appeared to be off his line.
