Declan Rice reveals how his West Ham team-mates have been urging him to shoot more often

Declan Rice revealed how his West Ham team-mates have been urging him to try his luck in front of goal after he finally opened his account against Arsenal.

Midfielder Rice, who turns 20 on Monday, grabbed his first career goal on his 55th appearance for the Hammers.

It was a vital strike, too, tucking away Samir Nasri's lay-off three minutes after half-time to secure a 1-0 win in front of a record crowd of 59,946 at the London Stadium.
