West Ham striker Michail Antonio got a warm reception as he was presented on the pitch at the London Stadium ahead of kick-off against Newcastle, three months after he was involved in a serious car accident.

The 34-year-old was hospitalised on December 7 when his car collided with a tree, after which he had to be cut free by firefighters.
