The Hammers beat Fiorentina 2-1 in Wednesday night’s final in Prague.

WEST HAM ENJOYED a heroes’ welcome as fans lined the streets of east London to celebrate their Europa Conference League glory.

The squad’s journey started at the site of their former home at Upton Park and finished at Stratford Town Hall, where they enjoyed a reception. David Moyes may have joined Ron Greenwood and John Lyall in earning immortality as managers to win a major trophy with the Hammers but he initially endured a lessened role on the bus, taking pictures of his players as they posed together.But he was soon joining in with the celebrations, dancing and jigging with the trophy on his head.

“At 24, captain of West Ham lifting a trophy in a European competition, I don’t think it is going to hit me for a while, but I am going to enjoy it and be as happy for as long as possible. The England midfielder added on Sky Sports News: “I think he goes down as the best manager West Ham have ever had. The circumstances, when he first came in, kept us twice, European competition, we finished fifth, sixth, a semi-final and now we’ve won this, he deserves all the credit he gets.Alamy Stock Photo Ireland's Conor Coventry celebrating last night.
