West Ham United came from 2-1 down with 10 minutes left to beat Sunderland 4-2 and go back top of Premier League 2 Division 2.

Visitors West Ham had taken an early lead through Oladapo Afolayan but a brace from 16-year-old Joe Hugill put bottom-club Sunderland on course for a first win of the season. 

The Hammers turned it around with Mesaque Dju (pictured top) and Xande Silva, on his return from a long-term injury, scoring from the edge of the box.

Sean Jordan Adarkwa then capped a victory that takes unbeaten West Ham back above Manchester United.
