 Spurs Fight Back to Humble Hammers

Ange Postecoglou’s side came from a goal down to win comfortably against their London rivals. Check out the best facts and Opta data in our Tottenham vs West Ham stats page.


Tottenham brushed off the memories of their agonising 3-2 defeat at Brighton last time out as they came from behind to ease to a 4-1 win over West Ham on Saturday.

Mohammed Kudus gave the visitors the lead in the 18th minute, only for Dejan Kulusevski to equalise when his shot hit both posts and crossed the line nine minutes before the break at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Three goals in eight minutes leading up to the hour mark killed the game as Yves Bissouma, an Alphonse Areola own goal and Son Heung-min put things to bed.

Kudus made it an even worse afternoon for Julen Lopetegui’s men as he was sent off for raising his hands into the faces of both Micky van de Ven and Pape Sarr with four minutes remaining.

It was West Ham’s heaviest Premier League defeat after scoring the opening goal since January 2013, when they were beaten 5-1 at Arsenal.
