Taking a look back at a classic West Ham United moment on this day in history, in association with Heineken...

West Ham United wrapped up their pre-season tour of Australia in style, making it two wins from two by defeating local rivals Tottenham Hotspur at the Optus Stadium in Perth on this day in 2023.

The Hammers continued their impressive form in preparation for the new campaign as goals from Danny Ings, Divin Mubama and Gianluca Scamacca ensured another victory for David Moyes’ men Down Under.

West Ham took command thanks to first half headers from Ings and Mubama, ensuring a two goal lead at the break.

A host of half-time changes for Tottenham saw Ange Postecoglu’s men make a strong start to the second half. Their pressure was rewarded as Giovanni Lo Celso’s sweetly struck volley and Destiny Udogie’s flicked header brought Spurs back into the contest.

But the Hammers fought back to retake the lead when substitute Scamacca latched on to Pablo Fornals’ slide rule pass and finished superbly to seal victory.
