West Ham v Tottenham: Premier League – live!

8.46am EST 08:46

88 min Son’s brilliant cross from the left is sliced over his own bar by Diop. Bale’s corner comes to nothing.

8.44am EST 08:44

86 min Alli tees up Dier, who marauds onto the ball and then slices it miles wide.

8.41am EST 08:41

82 min Bale’s cross is punched away by the flying Fabianski, who takes out Coufal in the process. There’s a break in play while he receives treatment.

8.40am EST 08:40

81 min West Ham substitution: Ben Johnson replaces Pablo Fornals. That might mean a switch to a back three/five.

8.38am EST 08:38

78 min: Bale hits the bar! Two chances for Spurs in the space of a few seconds. First Kane’s low cross from the right was brilliantly cleared by the stretching Rice in his own six-yard box. The ball came back to Kane, who picked out Bale on the edge of the area. He waited for it to bounce and swished a beautiful strike with the outside of his left foot that clattered off the top of the bar.

8.37am EST 08:37

78 min Spurs have gone to a back three, with Dier on the left and Doherty on the right. It’s a 3-2-4-1 formation now.

8.36am EST 08:36

78 min “No reason to replace Mourinho,” says Søren Sorgenfri. “He needs better players. Take out Kane and Son and the current squad is no more than midtable at best. Investments must be made.”

8.35am EST 08:35

77 min Dele Alli comes to replace Sergio Reguilon. Don’t ask me what that means tactically.

8.34am EST 08:34

75 min Fornals plays a short pass towards Antonio on the edge of the area. He lets it run, and the alert Lingard almost sneaks through on goal. Lloris and a defender, not sure who, were scrambling to clear the danger.

73 min: Just wide from Kane! An equaliser is coming. Lucas Moura found Kane on the edge of the D, where he shifted the ball away from Dawson and hit a powerful low drive with his left foot. Fabianski was beaten but it whistled past the post. That was another beautifully struck effort from Kane.

8.31am EST 08:31

72 min Bale has been good since coming on. He finds a bit of space and plays the ball down the line to Doherty, whose cross is intercepted at the near post by Rice.

8.30am EST 08:30

72 min The latest yellow card goes to Pablo Fornals for a foul on Ndombele.

8.29am EST 08:29

71 min Lots of Spurs pressure now. Son plays an inviting pass back towards Lucas Moura, who rifles high over the bar from inside the D.

8.28am EST 08:28

70 min “Graham Potter please,” says James Stephenson. “Or Diego Martinez, the Granada manager .”

8.27am EST 08:27

69 min Michail Antonio is booked for blocking a Spurs free-kick.

8.26am EST 08:26

67 min A cross-shot from Kane beats everyone in the six-yard box and drifts past the far post. Lucas Moura was the closest to reaching it.

8.24am EST 08:24

66 min “Since we’re on our way to another disappointing Spurs loss, it’s time for daydreaming,” says Dave Purcell. “Who would be your top choices to replace Jose?”

Nagelsmann or Rodgers I guess. You?

8.23am EST 08:23

Bale swung a corner towards the near post, where Lucas Moura twisted his neck to flick a superb header that hit the inside of the post and went in.

63 min This is a good spell for Spurs, who are attacking with more intensity than at any stage in the match.

8.20am EST 08:20

62 min Bale cuts inside promisingly but shoots straight at Fabianski from distance.

8.19am EST 08:19

61 min Kane’s dangerous low cross from the right is well held at full stretch by Fabianski.

8.18am EST 08:18

59 min Kane flashes the free-kick just wide of the far post. Fabianski probably had it covered – it went to his side – but it was really well struck.

8.16am EST 08:16

58 min Ndombele is fouled 25 yards from goal by Lingard. The free-kick is to the left of centre, so you’d expect a right-footer to hit it.

8.15am EST 08:15

56 min The free-kick is headed away to the edge of the area. Sanchez collects and boots the bouncing ball over the bar.

8.14am EST 08:14

56 min Soucek is booked for a late tackle on Kane. He got the ball but I think he went through Kane to get to it.

51 min If it stays like this Spurs will have lost seven of their last 12 league games.

49 min Lingard played a one-two with Fornals in the inside-left channel, then knocked the ball past the last man Dier. Had Fornals touched the ball he’d have been offside, but Lingard got there first and belted it into the far corner.

48 min It’s still being checked. Fornals, who was offside, made a move towards the ball but Lingard beat him to it and crashed a left-footed shot past Lloris.

Updated at 8.07am EST

8.06am EST 08:06

LINGARD HAS A GOAL DISALLOWED FOR OFFSIDE! It was a cracking finish, too. I think that’s a bit harsh, because it’s been given against Fornals even though he didn’t touch the ball. It’s being checked by VAR.

8.03am EST 08:03

Jose Mourinho has made a double substitution: Matt Doherty and Gareth Bale are on for Japhet Tanganga and Erik Lamela.

7.58am EST 07:58

“I mean, I could probably look it up, but I’d rather simply trust that you know vastly more than me (especially on this subject),” begins Matt Dony. “Regarding that Opta Joe stat, didn’t Van Nistelrooy score more Premier League goals from exclusively inside the area? I seem to remember all his United goals were from inside the box, then he scored from outside the area on his Madrid debut, but I may be wrong. It happens occasionally.”

From memory, he scored one from outside the area at Charlton in November 2005.

7.48am EST 07:48

Half time: West Ham 1-0 Tottenham

Peep peep! Another half of toil and trouble for Spurs, who had most of the ball but did little with it. Michail Antonio’s early goal allowed West Ham to sit in and play on the break, just the way they like it. See you in 10 minutes for the second half.

45+2 min: Fine save from Fabianski! Kane, on the edge of a crowded penalty area, shifts the ball to the side and hits a cracking low shot across goal. Fabianski gets down really smartly to his right to push it away. The resulting corner is headed wide by Dier in front of the near post.

7.43am EST 07:43

43 min Reguilon’s pass infield finds its way to Lamela, who hits a sweet first-time curler from 22 yards. Fabianski plunges to his right to make a good save.
