With West Ham’s upcoming match against Everton, it was almost inevitable the Hammers would show Adrian’s big moment against the Toffees on social media.
It is one of those clips that are almost impossible to get tired of, as the Spaniard threw off his gloves, sent Joel Robles the wrong way, stuck the ball in the bottom corner and finished things off delightfully with a knee slide by the corner flag:

Adrian played a total of 150 games for the Hammers, as per Transfermarkt, but this is undoubtedly the moment he will be most fondly remembered for by many.
The 32-year-old may have left for Liverpool, but he has still been receiving plenty of love from the Hammers faithful, especially when it comes to his memorable penalty.
Many fans will also be hoping someone can come up with a similar moment of brilliance to earn the Hammers three points.
A selection of Twitter reaction to the video can be seen below:
Pleased he is getting game time at @LFC, proper cult hero at West Ham after this.

I was working at a bar and a couple of my regulars had it on the phone, I just remember Adrian scoring the pen and me running and jumping around the bar
