Tottenham Hotspur looked as though they were going to steamroll West Ham to all three points come half time in their London Derby yesterday evening.
Spurs raced to a 3-0 lead within the first 16 minutes of the match thanks largely to the deadly duo of Harry Kane and Heung-min Son.
However, West Ham pulled two goals back in the final 15 minutes to provide a nervy finish for the Lilywhites, mirroring Jose Mourinho’s first game in charge back in November 2019.
Unfortunately, unlike that game last year, Tottenham were unable to hang on this time around, with Lanzini thumping an effort into the top corner with seconds left.
The shot from the edge of the box curled away from a diving Hugo Lloris all the way, although the Frenchman was able to get fingertips on it before it flew in the top corner.
Watford goalkeeper, Ben Foster, offered some experienced insight on Twitter, claiming that Lloris did everything right up to the final execution.
So why don’t you explain Ben? Genuinely you could offer insight if you wanted to?

That’s insight. As a non keeper (obvs) you mean, good feet, correct hand, having done that should have saved it?

Top class Ben appreciate that insight and look forward to you coming on as a guest.
