David Moyes' perfect nickname for West Ham forward Mohammed Kudus after wondergoal vs Freiburg

West Ham manager David Moyes nicknamed Mohammed Kudus 'snakehips' following his wondergoal in the Europa League against Freiburg on Thursday night.

The victory secured the Hammers' spot in the final eight despite Moyes facing regular criticism over the team's style of play.

»The club has moved on so much in the last few years. It's hard to point out how good it's been. And we want to make it better if we can."

Adding spice to the victory was Mohammed Kudus who crowned the win with an outstanding fourth goal. The Ghanaian player dribbled 60 yards before striking past the unfortunate Freiburg goalie, Noah Atubolu. His average-range curving shot for the fifth goal wasn't too shabby either.

«Snakehips,» Moyes said after the game, via The Mirror. «It was a brilliant individual goal, a Roy of the Rovers type goal really.»

Even before this fantastic goal, the damage had been inflicted on their shocked German opponents. The Hammers recorded their 11th successive home win in Europe.
