They were losing 3-0 for the majority of the game. The game was controlled, they didn't have chances and then late in the game, they score and increased their belief."They were lucky but maybe they deserved that luck. We were unlucky but maybe we deserved that."Harry Kane hit the post, it could be 4-0. Bale can score the fourth and kill it. Out of context, based on free-kicks and and second balls, they found a style."We should be stronger. In the second half they risked quite a lot, pressing up and gave us more space. We should get an occasion to win the game."I don't know if it was us inviting them or them with the extra motivation of getting in the game. I cant identify us or them, maybe both."Is it a lesson for the players? "For the team, yes. For individuals, no."West Ham manager David Moyes to BBC Sport: "I hadn't thought we played badly in the first half, that's what I said at half-time, sometimes you feel you have to do something - we didn't, we made changes later on and they certainly made a big difference."The plan was not to go 4-0 down, we said if we got one we would see what happened. It is a growing confidence we have at West Ham at the moment, we missed some chances today."A really good performance from the players got us back into it. We thought we played really well, the football was good, we threatened them. We are playing against a team everyone is talking about and after 10 minutes I was thinking 'is this going to be six or seven?' We changed and it made us better."Since we came back from lockdown we've been a completely different team. We keep scoring goals, but need to get back to clean sheets."The comeback kids - the stats you may have missedWest Ham are the first team in Premier League history to avoid defeat in a game having trailed by 3+ goals as late as the 81st minute.Tottenham (D1 L2) have failed to win any of their opening three home games of a Premier League season for just the fourth time (and first time since 2017-18), conceding stoppage-time equalisers in each of their last two.Tottenham were 3-0 up within 16 minutes against West Ham, the earliest they have scored three times in a single Premier League game since August 2007 v Derby County (14 mins).Since Jose Mourinho took charge of Spurs in November 2019, Harry Kane (33) and Son Heung-Min (30) have had a direct hand in more goals in all competitions than any other Premier League players.Gareth Bale came off the bench to appear in his first Spurs match in 7 years & 152 days, since scoring the only goal of the game v Sunderland in May 2013.

Tottenham 3-3 West Ham: Manuel Lanzini stunner seals dramatic draw

West Ham celebrate — Lanzini's strike, his first goal since May 2019, sparked wild West Ham celebrations at White Hart Lane

West Ham came back from three goals down with under 10 minutes to go to rescue a point in an astonishing comeback against Tottenham.

Manuel Lanzini's brilliant long-range strike in injury time levelled the scores after Spurs had taken complete control in the opening 16 minutes through two goals from Harry Kane and one from Son Heung-min.

Fabian Balbuena's header began West Ham's fightback, with Davinson Sanchez's own goal giving even more hope with five minutes to go.

Gareth Bale, on as a substitute in his first appearance since his return to Spurs from Real Madrid, missed a great chance in stoppage time before Lanzini lashed the ball in off goalkeeper Hugo Lloris' fingertips to cap an incredible climax.

West Ham improved markedly in the second half, but when Kane hit the post with 12 minutes to go there was no sign that the final result would be anything other than another win for Spurs.

The result sees Spurs remain in sixth place, while West Ham move up two places into eighth.
