DALE STEPHENS opened his Premier League scoring account – but rued two dropped points.

Stephens and Shane Duffy scored to put Albion on course for a win at the London Stadium which would have carried them into the top ten.

But West Ham forced a 2-2 draw after a double from striker Marko Arnautovic.

Stephens said: “It’s nice to score. I don’t score many.

“But the overall feeling from the game for me personally is disappointed not to win.

“I think it’s two points dropped.

“We’re disappointed. I thought we played very well in the first half and probably should have created more with the possession we had.”
