Havard Nordtveit isn't exactly fondly remembered by West Ham fans. He spent just one season with the London club after signing from Borussia Monchengladbach on a free in 2016, but was moved from position to position and never really found his rhythm.

This season, he has started each of Hoffenheim's three Bundesliga matches, and their Champions League clash away to Shakhtar Donetsk.

And it's the latter in which he made headlines, and kicked West Ham circles on Twitter into overdrive, as he headed in to score his side's second in a 2-2 draw.

Without further ado, then, here are the Twitter highlights as they happened when Nordtveit scored for his new side.
