West Ham United have qualified for the final of the Europa Conference League after overcoming AZ Akmaar in the semi finals of the competition on Thursday.
Having won the first leg at London Stadium 2-1, the Hammers were resolute away to their Dutch opponents, reaching the final in Prague on 7 June with a 1-0 second-leg win.
David Moyes’ side soaked up plenty of pressure at AFAS Stadium until Pablo Fornals scored on the counter-attack in second-half injury time.
West Ham will face either Fiorentina or FC Basel, whose semi-final went into extra time.
The Hammers are hoping to lift their first major trophy since they lifted the 1980 FA Cup; they were one of three winners of the 1999 Intertoto Cup
