54'
Diame scores with his 30th shot of the season...
53'
There's not the noise you might expect from this home crowd. It's still pretty nervy despite that opening goal from Diame.
52'
Decent cross from Zverotic on the right but Duff is the only man in the box and he cannot do anything with it. Then Bent and Kasami rather get in each other's way.
51'
Martin Jol: sacked in time for Match of the Day?
50'
Incidentally it was Scott Parker, probably Fulham's best player today, who gave the ball away in the lead-up to the goal.
49'
Fulham win a corner on their left with a chance to hit back immediately.... Taarabt delivers and Jaaskelainen punches.
48'
Another fake three-man kick-off from Fulham - it's Sidwell who is the decoy, in fact, with Bent and Taarabt taking the kick.
47'
GOAL! Mohamed Diame gives West Ham the lead - he is allowed to run to the edge of the box unchallenged, his shot takes a big deflection off Amorebieta, wrongfoots Stekelenburg and goes in.
46'
Second half under way, and Fulham unveil what appears to be a tactically fascinating fake three-man kick-off. Taarabt stands next to the ball but is bypassed...
-
Yep...
45+3'
Half-time at Upton Park and, let's face facts, it hasn't been a classic. But it's a huge game for both teams so let's hope the managers can talk some creativity into their charges during the break. Back in a few minutes.
45+2'
FIVE yellow cards this half - Diame goes in very late on Duff, probably more clumsy than malicious, but again Martin Atkinson has no alternative.
45+1'
CHANCE FOR NOLAN! Jarvis lifts the ball to the West Ham captain in space, who attemps an acrobatic volley but sends the ball into the ground and it bounces into Stekelenburg's arms!
45'
Another Downing cross from the West Ham right... this time Zverotic makes an important header.
43'
Downing chases down the West Ham right, but Richardson manages to usher the ball out for a goal kick.
42'
A few groans ring out as West Ham give it away again. Both sets of fans feeling distinctly uneasy.
41'
Under pressure - Martin Jol before kick-off.
40'
Tomkins attacks Downing's corner but is beaten to the punch by a defender.
39'
Amorebieta gives at away and West Ham break... Downing's cross is deflected behind for another corner.
37'
Matt Jarvis gives himself a talking-to after booting his attempted cross high over the bar.
36'
A damning indictment...
