Thierry Nevers hit a hat-trick for West Ham United U23 in their 5-1 win against Southend United yesterday.
The former Reading prospect joined the Hammers this summer.
“That felt good!" Nevers told West Ham TV. “They were quite unique [goals for me], being headers – I don't score a lot of headers, so my Uncle will be happy I got a couple of them to be honest!
“It was beautiful. It was a good game today, great for all the fans, and it had a good noise and good atmosphere.
“I just attacked the space. The first one I followed the ball in and headed it down, and the second one was just about making contact – but you've got to be in the right position at the right time, so it was nice to score.
“I was thankful to my teammates for the shot that led to the first one and the cross for the second."
