determined performance with jermain defoe hitting twice at both ends
of the half and gareth bale once to silence critics and particularly
westham fans who chanted various slangs due to the stabbing of a
tottenham fan in the europa league match against lazio in the
mid-week.A late goal from carrol ensured a consolation for the hammers
coach.
Tottenham had dominated possesion with the hammers giving out a who
lot of space for the likes clint dempsey,bale and lennon to
exploit,and with just a minute left on the clock to the end of the
first half,jermain defoe unleashed a 25-yard shot into the hammers net
to give his side the lead [against his former side].
The second half started and westham wanted to reply but thanks to
lloris who made a nice save to deny the hammers.Clint dempsey rattled
the bar and it payed off minutes later as the next attack enabled
gareth bale double his side's lead.A chipped pass from dempsey allowed
him to slot a shot via the pole into the net in the 58th minutes.
In the 64th minutes,the game was put to bed,as jermain defoe sealed
the win to relax villa boas nerve.An unselfish squared ball from
lennon allowed the england striker to slot into the empty net.
A late consolation in the 82' minutes by a carrol looped header from
o'brien's cross was the last goal of the game,as tottenham now move to
7th position on the league table.
