Callum Wilson’s Stoppage-Time Strike Seals West Ham Derby Win at Tottenham

The result deepens pressure on Thomas Frank after loud home chants for his exit.

Overview

  • West Ham beat Tottenham 2-1 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with Crysencio Summerville opening the scoring, Cristian Romero heading an equaliser, and Wilson converting the late winner.
  • Sections of Spurs supporters called for Frank to be sacked, following pre-match protests and a recent vote of confidence from the board.
  • The victory ends West Ham’s 10-game league winless run and offers a lift to their relegation fight after arriving in 18th place, seven points from safety.
  • Conor Gallagher, signed this week for around £34–35m, started for Spurs as they coped with key injuries, including Richarlison’s seven-week hamstring layoff.
  • The 3pm GMT kickoff fell under the UK broadcast blackout, with fans limited to later highlights despite the game’s significant implications for both managers.
