As the Hammers took on Czech side FC Slovacko in their first pre-season match in Austria, players and supporters prepared for the tie and shared their views on social media…
First, full-back Lewis Page couldn’t wait to land in Austria as part of Slaven Bilic’s squad
Spaniard Adrian was similarly excited for the side’s second summer trip
Toni Martinez was keen to get his shooting boots back on for the Slovacko test
The lads were fizzing the passes in pre-game and Darren Randolph prepared for his first West Ham match this summer
As the game got underway, Bilic’s side soon found themselves in front as skipper Mark Noble bagged the opener
New signing Ashley Fletcher then added a second for the Hammers
The Club's official Snapchat account was there to give supporters a behind-the-scenes view of the day

37: The Hammers lead through @Noble16Mark. Cullen finds Samuelsen, and Noble fires his cut back into the bottom right corner. [1-0] #WHUFC

Two late Slovacko goals meant the game ended level, but it was another good workout for West Ham who face Rubin Kazan next in Austria
And there were certainly positives to take from the game for supporters
Great to see Ashley Fletcher get off to a good start at West Ham today has so much potential very good finisher #WHUFC
