The Michael Quartet awarded West Ham United three points in the battle to stay in the Premier League, with a 4-0 victory over Norwich City, who became the first to go to the top flight.

As a result of the match that was held within the thirty-fifth stage, West Ham raised its score to 34 points in the sixteenth place, to stay ahead of the goals difference from Watford seventeenth, who beat its guest Newcastle (2-1) in a match held at the same time.

But Norwich remained in last place in the last twenty, 14 points behind Watford, the first safety center. It is impossible for the bottom player to make up the difference, as he has only nine points left from his last three matches this season.

It is the fifth time that Norwich has fallen to the first rank after 1995, 2005, 2014 and 2016.

Norwich fought this season in the Premier League after crowning him last season as a champion of the first class ("Championship"). But the team, supervised by German coach Daniel Farkke, performed modestly, and lost 24 of the 35 games he has played so far, including seven consecutive defeats.

Norwich's last win dates back to February 28, and was at the expense of Leicester City (1-0), in the penultimate stage before the suspension of the league competition due to the emerging Corona virus.

Since the competition resumed in June after stopping for more than three months, Norwich has had seven defeats in his seven matches.

Antonio, 30, has become the first Lost Ham player to score a "hat trick" in the league outside London since Tony Coty in 1987 in the Coventry City goal, according to Opta Statistics.

Today's match at the Karo Road stadium in Norwich came entirely from one side, along its two lines, and Antonio was the undisputed star.

The player, who has been defending the colors of the London club since 2015, distributed his four goals in half of the match.
