How Hammers ended the comfort of Tottenham's home

Three of the best chances fell on the Spurs in the first half, while Heung-Min Son forced Lukas Fabianski to save the ball after being released by Dele Alli, before Lucas Moura shot from a distance.

Fabianski then denied Christian Eriksen, who was trying to pbad the ball over the West Ham goalkeeper after the ball blocked Issa Diop's release.

Jan Vertonghen was suffering from "muscular fatigue" and was resting for the Spurs before the first leg in the Champions League semi-finals on Tuesday with Ajax.

Davinson Sanchez took his place on the field and Juan Foyth was replaced by Fernando Llorente. Ben Davies replaced Kieran Trippier and Eric Dier returned for Victor Wanayama in the other two Spurs changes.

West Ham made a change; Ryan Fredericks replaced Pablo Zabaleta at the back.

After being a pbadenger in the first period, Arnautovic gave life to West Ham in the second half, superbly creating the opener and the first goal conceded by the Spurs.

Finding himself on the right touchline, Arnautovic sent a fine pbad deep into the penalty area for Antonio, who stroked his chest before mowing Hugo Lloris on an eight-yard angle.

West Ham defended his opponent perfectly throughout the match. Ryan Fredericks came out of nowhere and blocked Fernando Llorente 12 yards, but the visitors had several chances to double their heads.

Antonio was again in a position similar to his goal, but Lloris's foot had refused. Diop found himself in front of the goal with a 40-yard run at half-time, then saw his weak shot wide shot by Lloris.
