Jarod Bowen had to tell a pitch invader where to go after his post-match interview was gatecrashed
And Bowen was about to be interviewed by BT Sport when a West Ham fan ran over to him.
But the forward was not interested as he shoved the pitch invader away and told him to go away.
The jubilant lad was singing an X-rated song about Bowen’s girlfriend and former Love Island star Dani Dyer.
Said Benrahma put the Hammers ahead from the spot just after the hour mark but Giacomo Bonaventura levelled on 67 minutes.
And the game looked to be heading for extra-time before Bowen was slipped through on goal.
The England international coolly slotted past Fiorentina stopper Pietro Terracciano to win the game.
Bowen was almost lost for words when he finally got around to speak.
He said: “I obviously dreamed of scoring but to score the winner in the last minute. It’s what you always say you want to do.

“To do it in front of these fans. I thought I was going to cry. I’m just happy.
“We had a dream, we haven’t had the best season, myself included, but to give these fans this moment, I’m over the moon.
“I think in my position you make that run 10 times you might get that ball once. As soon as you get it you’ve got to put it away.
“Never [have I felt like this in my life]. This is the biggest game of my career.
“The emotion, there was time for one more chance. I’m just so happy. I’m over the moon.
“I’m thinking of the party tonight. Listen to it. Listen.”
