Taking a look back at a classic West Ham United moment on this day in history, presented by Heineken...

Felipe Anderson scored a brace as West Ham United twice recovered from the blow of losing a lead to defeat Burnley 4-2 at London Stadium on this day in 2018.

The Brazilian’s second half goals made it 2-1 and 3-2 to the Hammers, following an opening 45 minutes which West Ham dominated but came in level after Jóhann Berg Guðmundsson cancelled our Marko Arnautović’s opener.

West Ham enjoyed 63 percent possession and had 21 shots to Burnley’s six, but they feared the points would have to be shared when Chris Wood headed the visitors level again at 2-2 with just 13 minutes left.

But the hosts kept going and were rewarded first with six minutes to go by Felipe Anderson’s second, before Chicharito made the game safe in injury time.
