Tottenham edge past West Ham
October 23rd, 2006
Tottenham heaped more misery on woeful West Ham, winning 1-0 thanks to a first-half strike from Egyptian striker Mido.
The former Roma hitman scored his first goal for the club since he returned to White Hart Lane on a permanent basis in the summer. Mido struck seconds from the end of the first half when he collected a low cross from Edgar Davids and turned Anton Ferdinand before firing the ball home via the far post.
Although Spurs dominated the second half the could not find a second score – but the single goal was enough to defeat a shot-shy West Ham side who have failed to score in their last seven games now.
The victory was belated revenge for Tottenham’s defeat to West Ham on the final day of last season when, amid suggestions of a food poisoning outbreak, they missed out on a place in the Champions League.
