David Moyes hopes Bayer Leverkusen’s players are still drunk from downing giant steins of beer when West Ham take on newly-crowned Bundesliga champions in their crunch Europa League clash tomorrow night.
Leverkusen won the German title for the first time in their history this week and celebrated in wild fashion as players stormed the post-match press conference to drench manager Xabi Alonso in beer before they continued the party in an alcohol-soaked dressing room.
West Ham will wish those hangovers carry into their critical game at the London Stadium tomorrow where Moyes’s side must overturn a two-goal deficit against a Leverkusen team that haven’t lost in 43 games.
