The victory was a historic one for the East London outfit, but has foreshadowed an ominous stat for Pep Guardiola‘s side.

The last time West Ham claimed a European trophy was in the 1964/65 season.

That was the Uefa Cup Winners’ Cup after they beat 1860 Munich in the final.

In the same campaign, Inter Milan claimed the European Cup for the second successive year.

Man City face Inter in the Champions League final on Saturday.

And the omen from 58 years ago does not bode well for the Premier League winners.

Man City are seeking to win Europe’s premier competition for the first time in their history.

Yet despite not having won it before, they head into the clash with Inter as the overwhelming favourites.

And if they manage to clinch victory, they will become just the second English side to secure the Premier League-FA Cup-Champions League Treble.

Sir Alex Ferguson’s Manchester United achieved the feat in 1999, but it has not been completed since.

Man City moved one step closer to the Treble by beating local rivals United in the FA Cup on Saturday – winning 2-1 at Wembley.

They had already scooped a third successive Premier League title and fifth in six years earlier this month.
