Goalkeeper Adrian says he was in no doubt that he would be West Ham's hero after saving a penalty and scoring the winner to see his side through a shootout and reach the fourth round of the FA Cup.

The Hammers beat Everton 9-8 on spot-kicks in their third-round replay after the match finishing 2-2 after extra time at Upton Park.

Adrian threw his gloves on the floor before taking his penalty and admitted he was sure the ball was going to end up in the back of the net.

Meanwhile, West Ham manager Sam Allardyce says it's been a long time since he experienced such highs and lows in a match as last night's victory, which set up a tie at Bristol City.

Allardyce says the Spaniard seemed remarkably calm.
