“The home fans held their breath as the ball hit both posts, but it eventually crossed the line to level the game. Kulusevski has been pivotal for Spurs this season, and he delivered when they needed it most.”
13:06: GOAL! Tottenham 1-1 West Ham (Kulusevski, 36′)
Spurs find their equalizer as they counter after a West Ham attack falters. Maddison makes a brilliant run before setting up Kulusevski, who cuts in and fires at the near post.
