West Ham striker Ings happy with chance for Sheffield Utd draw

West Ham striker Danny Ings was left satisfied with their 2-2 draw against Sheffield United.

Ings was involved in both of the Irons' goals.

Ings told the club's website: From a personal point of view, as a striker I'm always disappointed to come off the pitch without a goal. It's been a difficult period for me recently, and sometimes it just feels like things aren't falling your way.

But it's the first run of back-to-back games I've had for a while, and I felt really good physically. I always try to help the team as much as I can, so I'm pleased to have been able to make an impact, and once one goes in, I'm sure more will follow.

I'd much rather come away with all three points and not be involved in the game though, and we're all gutted not to have got the win today. Sometimes late drama like we've seen happens in the Premier League, and it's up to us now to respond to that."

He added: If you see Alphonse's [Areola] lip it looks as though it's him that's been clattered, rather than the Sheffield United player. It's tricky to talk about those sorts of things, but I do feel like we've been a bit unfortunate not to come away with the win.

We've just got to move on now and take what we can back to the training ground though. We've got a bit of a gap until our next game back at home, and we'll all be ready to go again against Bournemouth."
