Hammers’ victory boosts confidence, with Moyes looking to build on strong performances.
David Moyes described West Ham’s thrilling 2-1 comeback victory over Tottenham as a “significant moment” for the club, believing the result could act as a turning point. The Hammers, who were under pressure throughout the match, fought back with goals from Jarrod Bowen and James Ward-Prowse to secure the win in north London. Despite Spurs dominating the early stages, West Ham stood firm and absorbed the pressure before turning the match in their favour.
This victory moves them just three points behind Tottenham, maintaining their impressive away form this season, with only Manchester City and Premier League leaders Arsenal securing more points on the road than West Ham.
Moyes acknowledged that his team has had difficulties against the top sides in the league, especially away from home. However, he believes this triumph could be a catalyst for the team’s future performances.
“This was an important moment for our supporters,” Moyes commented. “They want to see us competing with the best, and we want to show we’re capable of that. Right now, Tottenham are one of the strongest teams in the league, but we’ve lacked these kinds of moments. We want to be that team – the one that consistently wins these games and delivers for the fans. Tonight was one of those moments.”
Looking ahead, Moyes is optimistic about what the victory will bring, both for the team’s confidence and for the supporters, adding, “We’ve got a very good squad, we’re climbing the table, and we’re doing well in Europe too. Hopefully, this momentum continues.”
