WEST HAM’S European winning streak continues as they confirmed top spot in their Europa Conference League group with a game to spare.
The Hammers recorded their seventh straight Euro victory of the season after Manuel Lanzini’s 24th minute penalty saw off Silkeborg at the London Stadium.
And on a night when they only needed a point to get the job done, it was also their sixth successive home win in all competitions – the first time they have done that in 24 years.
Boss David Moyes can now play the kids in his side’s dead-rubber group stage finale away in Bucharest next week with all eyes on the Last 16 in March as top seeds.
The Conference League has been a godsend for Moyes, providing a rhythm and momentum for his team who started their Premier League campaign with three losses on the spin.
