Back in the 90s, this one would be a genuine Premier League mid-table clash, but after Derby County suffered several relegations to League One (third tier), it turned into a cat-and-mouse game. And West Ham were the cat in this case, defeating Derby County 2-0 at their charming Pride Park in the FA Cup fourth-round tie.Bowen and Antonio send us through ⚒️#DERWHU pic.twitter.com/7HUriMaLKo— West Ham United (@WestHam) January 30, 2023 Despite a more than decent performance, the Rams had no chance to upset David Moyes’ side, which netted one in each half to secure the comfortable win.Bowen opened the scoring after a bit of a pinball in the rival’s area, with Soucek assisting him cleverly for the visitors’ 1-0 lead.How’s your touch, @Michailantonio? 🤩@WestHam #EmiratesFACup pic.twitter.com/gQvBULwhAE— Emirates FA Cup (@EmiratesFACup) January 30, 2023 The hosts did try to fight back almost instantly, but the Hammers’ starting XI was just too much for the third-division minnows.The match was wrapped up early in the second half, as impeccable striker Michail Antonio slotted it nicely on the far post for 2-0.ENGLAND – FA CUP1/16 finalsFridayMan.City – Arsenal 1-0 (0-0)/Ake 64/SaturdayWallsall – Leicester City 0-1 (0-0)/Iheanacho 68/Accrington – Leeds 1-3 (0-1)/Adekoya 81 – Harrison 23, Firpo 66, Sinisterra 68/Blackburn – Birmingham 2-2 (1-1)/Dack 33, Rankin-Costello 46 – Khadra 3, James 90+1/Bristol City – West Bromwich Albion 3-0 (2-0)/Bell 12, 48, Scott 28/Fulham – Sunderland 1-1 (0-1)/Cairney 61 – Clarke 6/Ipswich – Burnley 0-0Luton – Grimsby 2-2 (0-1)/Adebayo 49 pen, Clark 66 – Holohan 43, Clifton 67/Sheffield Wednesday – Fleetwood 1-1 (0-0)/Earl 71 og – Omochere 52/Southampton – Blackpool 2-1 (1-0)/Perraud 22, 62 – Patino 67/Preston – Tottenham 0-3 (0-0)/Son 50, 69, Danjuma 87/Manchester United – Reading 3-1 (0-0)/Casemiro 54, 58, Fred 66 – Mbengue 72/SundayBrighton – Liverpool 2-1 (1-1)/Dunk 39, Mitoma 90+2 – Elliott 30/Stoke – Stevenage 3-1 (1-0)/Brown 3, Laurent 73, Baker 80 pen – Reid 70/ Wrexham – Sheffield Utd 3-3 (0-1)/Jones 50, O’Connor 61, Mullin 86 – Mc Burnie 2, Norwood 65, Egan 90+5/MondayDerby County – West Ham 0-2 (0-1)/Bowen 10, Antonio 50/
