The clash between West Ham United and Brighton & Hove Albion concluded with a scoreless deadlock.
The Hammers hosted the Round 20 match in the ongoing English Premier League campaign at the London Stadium on January 2, 2024.
Mohammed Kudus was absent from West Ham United’s matchday squad as he had been released to join Ghana in preparation for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) tournament.
In Kudus’ absence, West Ham felt the void of his skills but managed to field an equally competent replacement.
Despite both teams creating numerous opportunities throughout the 90 minutes, neither side could find the back of the net, resulting in a goalless draw.
At 23 years old, Mohammed Kudus is anticipated to miss a minimum of three West Ham matches while representing Ghana in the 2023 AFCON.
If the Black Stars progress to the AFCON final, the prominent forward may be absent for additional games.
