West Ham United women’s team secured a convincing victory in their opening Women’s League Cup Group C match, beating Portsmouth 6-1 at Chigwell Construction Stadium.
Seraina Piubel put the Hammers ahead inside the opening 13 minutes, but Megan Hornby converted from the penalty spot to bring the Barclays Women's Championship side level midway through the first half.
Emma Harries would score her first of two goals shortly before the break, before Viviane Asseyi came off the bench and scored a quick brace to give Rehanne Skinner’s side a commanding lead just after half-time.
Harries added another on 51 minutes to make it five, before substitute Riko Ueki capped off a big win in Dagenham with a stoppage-time header.
