West Ham fans absolutely loved what Mohammed Kudus did during their victory over Luton Town on Saturday (11 May).

The Ghanaian international went on a mazy run through the Hatters' defence before laying the ball on a plate for academy product George Earthy to score his first professional goal.

Kudus then did what has become his iconic celebration with the 19-year-old, with the pair sitting together on the advertisement boards at the side of the pitch.

The Hammers put in an inspired performance in the second half as they came from one goal behind to secure a 3-1 victory.

After Albert Sambi Lokonga had put Luton ahead, James Ward-Prowse, Tomas Soucek and Earthy all found the back of the net in the second half at the London Stadium.

Kudus letting Earthy sit beside him like an uncle telling a nephew 'Go on. You're a big boy now.'
