West Ham United 0-3 Tottenham Hotspur: Post-match review, Stats, Key moments

Dive into Ladbrokes’ post-match review of West Ham United 0-3 Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League on Saturday, 13 September 2025, with stats, key moments and our take on the match.

Well, that was a proper drubbing at the London Stadium, wasn't it? Tottenham Hotspur strolled away with a convincing 3-0 win over West Ham United, and it's safe to say the result wasn't much of a surprise given their recent form. Spurs have been on a roll, winning three out of their last four, while West Ham have been struggling, losing three of their last four. The Hammers just couldn't find their footing, and it didn't help that Tomáš Souček saw red in the 54th minute. On the other hand, Lucas Bergvall was the star of the show for Tottenham, bagging a goal and an assist to keep their winning streak alive.

The game was pretty much over by halftime, with Pape Matar Sarr putting Tottenham ahead just two minutes into the second half. From there, it was all Spurs, with Bergvall and Mickey van de Ven adding to the scoreline. West Ham tried to make some changes, bringing on fresh legs like Luis Guilherme and Callum Wilson, but it was too little, too late. Tottenham's dominance was clear, and they've now extended their winning run, while West Ham's woes continue to mount. A tough day at the office for the Hammers, but a brilliant performance from the visitors.

The stats tell a story of total domination by Tottenham Hotspur. With 64% possession and 13 corners compared to West Ham's measly 36% and 2, it's clear who was in control. Tottenham's successful dribbles percentage was a whopping 57%, while West Ham managed just 35%. The only blot on Tottenham's copybook was a yellow card for Djed Spence, but that was overshadowed by Tomáš Souček's red card for West Ham. The numbers don't lie, and they paint a picture of a team that was outclassed and outplayed.

What's surprising is how little West Ham managed to threaten, with zero assists and no shots on target. Tottenham, on the other hand, had one assist and three goals to show for their efforts. The stats align perfectly with the result, and it's hard to argue that Tottenham didn't deserve the win. A masterclass in possession and pressure from the visitors, and a lesson in what happens when you can't keep your cool, as evidenced by that red card.

The game's turning point came early in the second half when Pape Matar Sarr put Tottenham ahead just two minutes after the break. That goal set the tone for the rest of the match, and West Ham never really recovered. Then, in the 57th minute, Lucas Bergvall doubled the lead with a brilliant finish, assisted by Mohammed Kudus. It was a moment of quality that showcased Tottenham's attacking prowess and left West Ham chasing shadows.

Things went from bad to worse for the Hammers when Tomáš Souček was sent off in the 54th minute, leaving them a man down for the final half hour. That red card was a killer blow, and it was no surprise when Mickey van de Ven added a third goal in the 64th minute. West Ham tried to salvage something with a flurry of substitutions, but it was too late. The key moments all favoured Tottenham, and they capitalized on every opportunity to secure a comfortable victory.

West Ham lined up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Mads Hermansen in goal and a back four of Kyle Walker-Peters, Konstantinos Mavropanos, Maximilian Kilman, and El Hadji Malick Diouf. In midfield, Tomáš Souček and James Ward-Prowse were tasked with controlling the game, but it was Souček's red card that threw a spanner in the works. Up front, Jarrod Bowen, Mateus Fernandes, Crysencio Summerville, and Lucas Paquetá were expected to provide the firepower, but they struggled to make an impact.

The substitutions of Luis Guilherme, Soungoutou Magassa, Callum Wilson, and Andrew Irving were attempts to change the game's momentum, but it was too little, too late. The lineup didn't have the desired effect, and the early red card for Souček was a major blow. West Ham will need to regroup and find a way to bounce back from this disappointing performance.

Tottenham went with a 4-3-3 formation, with Guglielmo Vicario between the sticks and a backline of Pedro Porro, Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven, and Djed Spence. In midfield, Pape Matar Sarr, João Palhinha, and Lucas Bergvall provided the engine room, with Bergvall proving to be the standout performer. Up top, Mohammed Kudus, Mathys Tel, and Xavi Simons were tasked with breaking down West Ham's defence, and they did so with ease.

The substitutions of Richarlison de Andrade, Iyenoma Destiny Udogie, Wilson Odobert, Kevin Danso, and Brennan Johnson were made to keep the momentum going and give some players a well-deserved rest. The lineup worked like a charm, with Bergvall's goal and assist proving to be the difference. Tottenham's players executed their roles perfectly, and it's hard to fault any of them for their performance in this convincing victory.

Lucas Bergvall is Ladbrokes’ Man of the Match, and it's easy to see why. With a goal and an assist to his name, he was the driving force behind Tottenham's victory. His key pass set up the second goal, and his finish for the third was a thing of beauty. Bergvall's performance was the difference-maker, and he thoroughly deserves the accolade.
