One West Ham United player put in a top-class performance for his country during an international friendly match last night.
West Ham have 11 players currently away on international duty, and that is a sign in itself of just how far we’ve come.

Hammers boss David Moyes will be praying that none of his players suffer any injuries whilst away with their respective nations, and he will also be hoping that some of his underperforming stars manage to find a bit of form.
It seems as though Nayef Aguerd did exactly that last night for Morocco against the Ivory Coast.
The 27-year-old was on top form, and the media in his homeland absolutely raved about him…
National media absolutely blown away by under-fire West Ham ace’s international display
Moroccan media outlet H24 Info lauded the former Rennes ace after his performance against Ivory Coast last night.
Aguerd stopped an almost certain goal for the Ivory Coast with a superb goal-line clearance and it was suggested by H24 Info that he put in one of his best performances in a Morocco shirt.
That display from Aguerd really was fantastic timing for both him and West Ham.
The centre-back has received huge criticism recently for a succession of well below average performances for the Hammers.
He was recently criticised by both his manager David Moyes and teammate Jarrod Bowen. The 27-year-old undoubtedly needs to buck up his ideas, and fast, if he is to remain in Moyes’s starting XI.
The West Ham ace’s international performance for Morocco against the Ivory Coast last night should be the injection of confidence that he so desperately needs.
Nayef Aguerd is a top-class defender on his day, and he proved that again last night. He just needs to come out of this bad patch for the Hammers sooner rather than later.
