Tottenham wins at last but stays in the drop zone after late drama at West Ham

Spurs finally claim first league win of 2026 with an 82nd-minute goal, but remain in relegation zone after West Ham's late winner.

  • On Saturday, Tottenham secured their first Premier League victory since December by defeating already-relegated Wolves 1-0, with Joao Palhinha scoring the decisive 82nd-minute goal for coach Roberto De Zerbi.
  • The result keeps Tottenham in the relegation battle, which has effectively become a two-horse race against West Ham for the final survival spot. Both teams have 36 points.
  • Substitute Callum Wilson scored a dramatic 92nd-minute winner to maintain West Ham's two-point cushion over Tottenham, after travelling fans briefly celebrated when Everton cancelled out Tomas Soucek's 88th-minute opener.
  • Elsewhere, Liverpool climbed into fourth place by beating Crystal Palace 3-1 at Anfield, moving the Reds level on 58 points with Aston Villa and Manchester United after goals from Andy Robertson and Alexander Isak.
  • Aston Villa's hopes of European qualification suffered a setback after losing 1-0 to Fulham on Ryan Sessegnon's first-half goal, while Arsenal hosts Newcastle seeking to reclaim the top spot from Manchester City.
