Andy Carroll's winning header secured the win for West Ham and condemned Chelsea to yet another defeat.
The
visitors to Upton Park were reduced to 10 men shortly before half time
when referee Jonathan Moss sent Nemanja Matic off, before sending Jose
Mourinho and Chelsea coach Silvino Louro to the stands in the aftermath.
Mauro
Zarate gave West Ham the lead in the 17th minute before Gary Cahill
gave Chelsea hope of salvaging a point with an equaliser in second half.
