Tottenham Hotspur’s season hit a new low on Saturday as they suffered a heartbreaking defeat to London rivals West Ham United.
Despite a second-half equalizer from Cristian Romero, Spurs were unable to withstand late pressure, and Callum Wilson poked home a 93rd-minute winner to spark wild celebrations in the away end.
The defeat leaves Tottenham languishing in 14th place and has sparked fresh rumours regarding the future of manager Thomas Frank.
The game also featured the debut of Conor Gallagher, though his industrious performance was overshadowed by a serious injury to Ben Davies, who was carried off early on.
For West Ham, the victory ends a ten-match winless run and provides a vital lifeline in their battle against relegation.
Crysencio Summerville had earlier given the Hammers the lead with a deflected strike, and manager Nuno Espirito Santo was visibly relieved at the final whistle.
The result moves West Ham closer to safety, while Tottenham fans were heard booing their team off the pitch.
With supporter protests already planned for the coming week, Frank faces an uphill battle to convince the Spurs hierarchy that he is the right man to lead the club forward through the remainder of the campaign.
