Loan Watch | Three Hammers appear in Carabao Cup

Three on-loan Hammers appeared for their respective clubs in the Carabao Cup third round in midweek.

Gideon Kodua kicked-off his second loan spell at Wycombe Wanderers in style by starting the Chairboys’ 1-0 win at Swansea City. 

The EFL League One side shocked their Championship hosts at Liberty Stadium, where Richard Kone struck the matchwinner five minutes before half-time. Kodua played for 58 minutes in midfield before being replaced.

Wycombe's reward for their surprise victory is a home tie with Premier League Aston Villa in the third round.

Callum Marshall followed up his League One winner for Huddersfield Town against Shrewsbury Town last weekend with another start in their third-round tie at Walsall.

The Terriers went 2-0 up, but by then had been reduced to ten men by Matty Pearson’s red card. With that in mind, Marshall was withdrawn at half-time, and Walsall roared back to win 3-2 at the Bescot Stadium.

Patrick Kelly started for Doncaster Rovers in their 3-0 defeat at Premier League Everton. The midfielder played the opening 64 minutes in front of over 37,000 fans at Goodison Park, where the EFL League Two side kept the Blues at bay for 53 minutes before falling behind.
