Arrival of Kieran Trippier shows new-found pulling power of Newcastle United

Craig Dawson put West Ham ahead in the 32nd minute, heading home a free kick from Aaron Cresswell. But Newcastle leveled the scores in added time of the first half with a classy finish from Joe Willock, which beat goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski; the goal awarded by goal-line technology after the ball was scrambled away.

The draw meant West Ham remain in fifth place on 42 points, one behind fourth-placed Manchester United, who visit Leeds United on Sunday.

Newcastle, meanwhile, extended their unbeaten run to six games and although they are still in 17th position they are five points above the relegation zone.

Meanwhile, Kurt Zouma was taunted by Newcastle fans who jeered the West Ham defender and waved inflatable cats at him. Zouma was making his second Premier League appearance since a video emerged that showed him kicking and slapping his pet cat.

Zouma was fined two weeks' wages by West Ham and dropped by his sponsor Adidas.

When Umm Kulthum performed in Abu Dhabi

  

 

 

 

Known as The Lady of Arabic Song, Umm Kulthum performed in Abu Dhabi on November 28, 1971, as part of celebrations for the fifth anniversary of the accession of Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan as Ruler of Abu Dhabi. A concert hall was constructed for the event on land that is now Al Nahyan Stadium, behind Al Wahda Mall. The audience were treated to many of Kulthum's most well-known songs as part of the sold-out show, including Aghadan Alqak and Enta Omri.
