David Moyes' dad dancing has fans in stitches after West Ham boss' Lucas Pacqueta promise
David Moyes put on his dancing shoes after West Ham ended their trophy drought with a last-gasp winner in Prague - as he fulfilled his earlier promise
David Moyes danced his heart out after West Ham won the Europa Conference League final in Prague - months after he made a promise to one of his players.
The 60-year-old rolled back the years to shake and move on the playing surface after Jarrod Bowen rolled home the latest of winners against Fiorentina.
It gave West Ham their first major trophy for 43 years and Moyes was quick to celebrate, performing a jig after the full-time whist as fans and players alike celebrated in Prague.
One comment read: "David Moyes dancing. Highlight of the season behind us winning the trophy." A second said: "See David moyes run down that touchline, dancing after the whistle makes me mean happy."
A third posted: "Seeing David Moyes dad dancing is glorious." A fourth agreed: "Moyes Dad dancing and memories for a lifetime for the fans and players."
Meanwhile, Robbie Savage cracked up in laughter on commentary duty as he implored the cameras to stick on the manager as fans went wild in the stands after the 2-1 victory.
To tug at the heartstrings, Moyes then brought his elderly father onto the pitch to celebrate winning the first major trophy of his extended career.
Earlier in the season, Moyes promised that he would dance with Lucas Paqueta if they won a trophy - fulfilling that at full-time in Prague.
He told BT Sport: "This is fantastic. I have had a long career in football and you don't get many moments like this.
"These sorts of moments as managers don't come around often. This is a great moment for us.
