/ 7
On Tuesday, West Ham hosts Manchester United for its last match at Upton Park, the club's home for the last 112 years. We re-live Hammers' best moments at the monumental stadium.
▲
1966: Geoff Hurst (left), fresh from the heroics at the World Cup final, inspired a 7-0 hammering of a very strong Leeds United side at the Boleyn Ground in Upton Park.
▲
1976: The Hammers reached its second European Cup Winners' Cup final by beating Eintracht Frankfurt at home.
▲
1997: New signings John Hartson and Paul Kitson both found the net as relegation-threatened West Ham United secured a 4-3 victory in a fiesty encounter against Tottenham, to escape from the relegation zone.
▲
2000: A West Ham side featuring the likes of Paolo Di Canio, Rio Ferdinand, Joe Cole, Michael Carrick, Frank Lampard and Frédéric Kanouté (wow right?) overcame Bradford 5-4 in a Premier League match at Upton Park.
▲
2016: Angelo Ogbonna Obinza was the star for West Ham United after he scored an extra-time winner in the FA Cup Fourth Round Replay match against Liverpool at Boleyn Ground
▲
It's 'lights off' at Upton Park for West Ham but a future at the Olympic Stadium with star names such as Dimitri Payet, Andy Carroll and Manuel Lanzini may yet produce a brighter future for the Hammers.
