West Ham United suffered their 18th loss of the Premier League campaign at the hands of Tottenham Hotspur last night, with an own goal from Tomas Soucek and a Harry Kane strike condemning them to defeat. It dealt a blow on their survival chances as they will slip into the relegation zone should Bournemouth and/or Aston Villa win their next games. Hammers boss David Moyes believes that the Spurs’ opener should have been ruled out by the VAR for handball as the ball deflected off Davinson Sanchez arms in the build-up to the goal.
The West Ham manager is also unhappy that the Premier League didn’t grant his request to play on Wednesday or Thursday in order to give his team more time to prepare for the Tottenham clash, an admission his counterpart Jose Mourinho made.
