West Ham United entertained Tottenham Hotspur at the London Stadium earlier tonight as they looked to secure all three points at home in the London derby. The Hammers made a poor start to the game as they conceded the opening goal in the fifth minute when Brennan Johnson got his name on the scoresheet. However, David Moyes’ men equalised in the 19th minute thanks to Kurt Zouma’s effort. The two London teams went into the half-time interval with a 1-1 scoreline.
