West Ham: Fans love club tweet of derby win against Chelsea

A lot of West Ham fans are loving a post by the club on Twitter showing images of their 1-0 victory over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge earlier this season.

It was a memorable day for the fans and a crucial victory in their ongoing relegation battle, but it was also a great day for goalkeeper David Martin, via BBC Sport.

The 33-year-old was signed at the start of the season, per Transfermarkt, as a reserve goalkeeper but saw himself making his debut against the Blues after Łukasz Fabianksi was injured and Roberto Jimenez was not favoured.

Not only did Martin make a good set of saves, but he also kept a clean sheet as the Hammers won the game, and you could see how much it meant for the goalkeeper who has supported the club since he was a child, as he was in tears of joy at the final whistle, BBC Sport.

Here is what fans have said about the game following the tweet:
