Hammers hit City for six
Big Sam started with a strong side and it didn’t take them long to hit the front against a weakened Cork City line-up when Alou Diarra rose unmarked to power home Joe Cole’s inswinging corner inside five minutes.
The Premier League side went further in front in the 18th minute when Kevin Nolan’s through ball split the City defence and Cole finished well.
