# West Ham United: Many fans were over the moon for Aaron Cresswell

**Aaron Cresswell scored his second goal in two games during West Ham United’s 2-2 draw against AFC Bournemouth.**

His was the goal that earned the draw, as he struck the ball on the half-volley from Felipe Anderson’s knockdown, as shown in the highlights video on the [**Sky Sports Football**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2X7Oh4GuCho) YouTube channel.

This follows his superb free-kick on his return to the team that helped secure the Hammers’ 2-0 win against Manchester United.

The left-back was understandably happy with himself following the game’s culmination:

Many West Ham fans are over the moon for him, especially considering the fact it seemed he wouldn’t get a look in with Arthur Masuaku playing four games in a row before getting sent off against Aston Villa, as per [**WhoScored**](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/122980/MatchStatistics/Arthur-Masuaku).

However, things seem to have completely turned round in his favour, with the Democratic Republic of Congo international not even making the bench at the Vitality Stadium.

A selection of Twitter reaction to Cresswell’s performance, including posts from impressed West Ham fans, can be seen below:
