Saido Berahino scores shortly before half time to cancel out an early goal from Diafra Sakho in the match between West Bromwich Albion and West Ham United.

West Bromwich Albion have come from a goal down to head into half time level at 1-1 with West Ham United at Upton Park in the Premier League this afternoon.

The home side looked the more likely from the start as Aaron Cresswell played the ball forward for Andy Carroll, but the forward's strike was straight at Ben Foster in the Baggies' goal.

The Hammers were ahead just a few minutes later though as Cresswell was on the ball again, this time crossing it in for Diafra Sakho, who met the delivery with a diving header to open the scoring with his ninth goal of the season.

Stewart Downing tried to double their lead after breaking free down the left flank before cutting inside, but Foster was left with an easy save.

Adrian was called into action down the other end as West Brom tried to get back on level terms, but the keeper reacted well to deny Graham Dorrans from a volley after Saido Berahino had headed it on.

The visitors continued to press as half time approached, and managed to level the scores shortly before the break when Berahino scored his first goal in 12 matches, slotting it past Adrian from close range to leave the sides level.
