_**Taking a look back at a classic West Ham United moment on this day in history...**_
Sam Baldock scored twice to help promotion-chasing West Ham United to a 3-2 win over Leicester City on this day in 2011.
Baldock headed home to give the hosts a 20th-minute lead, before Julien Faubert drilled home a second barely a minute later.
Andy King pulled one back for the Foxes, but Baldock ran clear to strike a third for the Hammers, meaning King's second goal of the game was a mere consolation.
Sam Allardyce's men would go on to win promotion to the Premier League via the Play-Offs at the season's end.
Watch the goals from that October day again in the video player above.
