Jose Mourinho enjoyed a successful return to the Premier League as Tottenham Hotspur beat West Ham United 3-2 at London Stadium.

Spurs went two up at half-time thanks to Heung-Min Son’s third goal in two games at the London Stadium and a determined finish from Lucas Moura – one of three players restored to the starting line-up by Mourinho.

Lucas missed a sitter just after the restart but Harry Kane quickly added the third with a header that also took him above Martin Chivers as Spurs third-highest scorer of all-time as the visitors dominated for the bulk of the game.

But Kane was denied another by a fine last-ditch tackle from Issa Diop just past the hour mark. The hosts, also struggling of late, upped their game and pulled a goal back on 73 minutes when Cresswell’s delivery came out to Antonio, who drilled low past Gazzaniga from the edge of the area.

And Angelo Ogbonna scored with practically the last kick of the contest deep in added time, but it was too little, too late for Manuel Pellegrini’s side as Tottenham clinched their first Premier League away win since January and first in six games in the competition.

Spurs’ victory lifts them from 14th to ninth.

West Ham drop to 16th with 13 points from 13 matches.
