Ajayi’s West Bromwich Albion end wait for first Premier League victory

Semi Ajayi and West Bromwich Albion ended their wait for a first Premier League victory of the season as they dispatched Sheffield United 1-0 on Saturday.

A relegation dogfight between two of the early-season strugglers was settled in the 13th minute with Conor Gallagher’s first goal in his last 34 league games for the Baggies, leaving the Blades as the only club in the top flight without a win so far this campaign.

The triumph takes the Albion up to six points after 10 matches, taking them out of the relegation zone and one point ahead of Burnley, who were defeated 5-0 by Manchester City earlier in the day.
