SPURS GAVE their Champions League ambitions a boost after a 2-0 success against near neighbours...
Two second half goals did for the Hammers who have a job on their hands to avoid dropping into the Championship
West Ham came into this fixture with improved form. The surprise name on their team sheet was midfielder Flynn Downes who has had limited opportunity this term. West Ham nearly nipped the celebrations in the bud minutes after kick off but Jarrod Bowen’s shot went wide of the post after a good set up by Tomas Soucek.
United’s positive start might have been curtailed after a vociferous shout for handball against defender Thilo Kehrer. Let’s just say the defender was lucky that VAR did not intervene. Richarlison nearly changed all that but saw his clever left foot shot blocked by an alert Lukasz Fabianski in the dying embers of first half after a peach of a pass by Kane. From the subsequent corner Clement Lenglet saw his header go just inches over the bar.
The visitors looked to gain parity minutes later. However, Bowen was crucially denied by the alert Fraser Forster, who for most of this match was a spectator.
