Spurs, who were once again without their head coach Antonio Conte in attendance, though, appeared more spirited in the second half. They missed a pair of excellent opportunities before defender Emerson Royal scored on 56 minutes. Richarlison started the game on the bench, but Son Heung-Min came on just after the hour mark and scored after four minutes with a crisp finish into the bottom right corner.

There is growing pressure on manager David Moyes as the visitors, who had a promising start to the derby with Jarrod Bowen missing an early opportunity, contributed little and have now won just once in their last 11 league games. When Bowen was well-positioned to score early on but instead missed, West Ham might have profited from a painfully inconsistent Tottenham outfit.

Although Spurs played much better in the second half, Richarlison and Harry Kane both missed opportunities that would have given the hosts the lead. Ben Davies was set free down the left side by Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg’s brilliant delivery, and Emerson calmly slipped a shot past goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski with the help of Hojbjerg’s brilliantly weighted pass.

Son was set free by Kane’s pass for the second goal, which featured a lot more frequent combination, and the South Korean international scored with his right foot. That was Son’s fifth league goal of the year, and his other three came in a hat-trick in an at-home victory over Leicester City.

Spurs lead Newcastle, who has a game remaining, by one point with 42 points after 24 games. With 20 points from 23 games, West Ham is one point outside of the safety zone in 18th place. With 20 points from 23 games, West Ham is in 18th place, one point behind Bournemouth and Everton, both of whom have 21 points.
