West Ham United 2-1 Tottenham Hotspur: Hammers climb to fourth

West Ham moved into the top four of the Premier League with a narrow victory over Tottenham that increases the pressure on Spurs manager Jose Mourinho.

Michail Antonio - back in the Hammers' starting line-up after a two-game absence - gave the hosts the perfect start, poking home after Hugo Lloris had failed to deal with Jarrod Bowen's cross.

Jesse Lingard's third goal in four league games was initially disallowed for offside against Pablo Fornals.

But VAR ruled that the Spaniard was not interfering with play when the former Manchester United man skipped through the visiting defence before powerfully finding the far corner to make it 2-0.
