The club plays at the London Stadium, a 62,500-capacity venue that was originally built for the 2012 Olympics. West Ham has won the FA Cup 3 times and the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup in 1965, with that team featuring legendary players like Bobby Moore, Geoff Hurst, and Martin Peters — all of whom were key members of England's 1966 World Cup-winning squad.
