Former West Ham star Joe Cole has hailed Mohammed Kudus after the summer signing scored his first goal for the club in their 3-1 Europa League win over Backa Topola.
Kudus was handed his first start since joining the Hammers in a £38m summer move from Dutch giants Ajax.
The Ghanaian international played a key role in West Ham's equaliser on the night, after Petar Stanic gave the Serbian visitors a shock lead.
Pressure from Kudus at the back post led to Nemanja Petrovic turning Said Benrahma's cross into his own net in the 66th minute.
