West Ham United edged past Queens Park Rangers after extra time to reach the FA Cup fourth round, easing pressure on Nuno Espírito Santo. The match, which ended 2-1, underlined West Ham’s struggles as a Premier League side taken deep by Championship opposition. The decisive moment came when January signing Taty Castellanos headed home the winner, offering hope that West Ham may finally have solved a long-running striker problem. Crysencio Summerville impressed, scoring once and providing the assist for Castellanos. QPR forced extra time through Richard Kone after earlier dominating spells, earning praise from their manager Julien Stéphan. Despite the win, supporter unrest remained evident, and West Ham’s performance suggested survival battles still lie ahead.
