_**Taking a look back at a classic West Ham United moment on this day in history, in association with Heineken...**_
Frédéric Kanouté's eleventh goal of the season was enough to give West Ham United a hard-fought and deserved victory at Fulham on this day in 2002.
The striker's 45th-minute winner sent a resolutely-organised Hammers up to the heady heights of eighth place in the Premier League table.
The Mali international struck on the stroke of half-time, leaping high to nod Trevor Sinclair's cross past a helpless Edwin van der Sar.
That proved to be enough for all three points, which helped the Irons to an eventual seventh-place finish.
