José Mourinho’s side, after winning comfortably at the Europa Leauge, surely deserved more on their visit to West London, but in virtually their only two attacks, West Ham went 2-0.
Antonio put David Moyes ahead in the fifth minute by finishing off a cross from Soucek, picking up his own rebound from Lloris and pushing into an empty goal, while Lingard made the second just after half-time. The linesman canceled it for offside, but the VAR rectified it.
With the score very against and with Bale, left the bench at half-time by an Erik Lamela who was being the best, Tottenham began to generate danger in the West Ham goal. Moura cut the distance by finishing off a corner set by Bale at the near post and there the powder for Tottenham was watered down.
Harry Kane, with several shots, Heung-min Son, with an attempt that went to the post in discount, and Bale, with a shot from the front of the front that crashed violently off the crossbar, brushed the goal, but not They were able to make the 2-2 that would have caused the ‘Spurs’ not to leave empty for the second consecutive day after losing last week against Manchester City.
Mou’s Tottenham is ninth, with 36 points, nine behind the Champions League, which is already West Ham, which is fourth with 45 points.
