Saturday, 30 July 1966, may be 56 years ago but, for hat-trick hero Sir Geoff Hurst, England’s FIFA World Cup final victory over West Germany seems like only yesterday. He recalls the memorable day of England’s World Cup win on West Ham‘s website. And tomorrow England women could again win silverware at Wembley against Germany in the Euro final!

The West Ham United legend made history when he fired three goals past Hans Tilkowski to become the first and only player to net a treble in the biggest game in football.

The now 80-year-old says he will always be proud of the part he played in England’s greatest-ever footballing achievement.
