However, the evening was marred for one travelling family after their son was involved in an incident that has left him in hospital and unable to return to England.

Hammers fanConnor Reid, 19, attended the game in Prague with his dad, Alex, before falling off a wall that had a 'five metre drop'.

Details on the GoFundMe page claim that the impact caused a fractured skull and a bleed in the brain, and that doctor's were forced to remove Reid's spleen.
