_**Taking a look back at a classic West Ham United moment on this day in history, presented by Heineken...**_
On this day in 1992, Clive Allen and Trevor Morley were the goalscorers as West Ham United saw off Southend United 2-0 at Boleyn Ground.
The Hammers had made a stumbling start to their Division One promotion push, and went into the game against the Shrimpers sitting 16 points behind league leaders Newcastle United, following a 5-2 reverse away defeat at Tranmere Rovers a week prior.
But once Morley powered home a header from close range after a well-worked set-piece, the three points against Southend were rarely in doubt.
A brilliant diving header from Allen in the second half proved enough to seal the victory in a season which ended with Billy Bonds' West Ham United achieving their aim of winning promotion to the Premier League.
Watch the goals again above!
