Michail Antonio continues winning run against Spurs

West Ham 1-0 Spurs West Ham talisman Michail Antonio secured all three points for his side in this tight fought derby against Spurs at the London Stadium. Antonio popped up in the 72nd minute to force the ball home from a well taken Aaron Cresswell corner. It was Antonio’s sixth goal in the Premier League and his seventh in what is proving a vintage season for the big striker. The home side had the better of the first half possession, with Pablo Fornals testing Spurs keeper Hugo Lloris early with a well struck volley from a Jarrod Bowen cross. Tomas Soucek then skied one from the centre of the penalty area when set up nicely by Antonio. Soucek then saw a thumping header from a Fornals cross go just wide of the post. It was Spurs, though, who had the best chance of the half, when England captain Harry Kane met a cross from Sergio Reguilon, but saw his point blank header at the back post tipped over by Lukasz Fabianski. The game continued to flow from end to end in the second half, with Spurs probably having the better of the possession. It was West Ham though who took the decisive lead when Antonio stepped up to convert the corner. .
