West Ham start confidently and dominate early play, limiting Tottenham's opportunities. Paqueta produces the game's best chance, receiving a pass in the box and drilling a shot narrowly wide of the right post. Bowen operates on the right while Paqueta occupies a central role. Diouf delivers a left-wing cross that Bowen nearly heads over the bar. Summerville blocks a Kudus cross and earns a loud cheer. Kudus receives boos from home supporters and later turns possession out of play to mixed reaction. Long balls toward Summerville fail to trouble Vicario, and neither goalkeeper is significantly tested in the opening stages.
