Transcription

Chapter 1: What was the significance of West Ham's historic win at Spurs' new stadium?

7.658 - 24.975 Unknown

On out of it. Antonio! It's a first for West Ham in every sense. A first goal to give them the lead and they become the first side to score here at Spurs' new stadium. Michael Antonio with a wonderful goal.

0

25.681 - 35.104 Jamie Redknapp

Wonderful goal, wonderful win for West Ham. The first visiting team to win here. They have run themselves into the ground today. Terrific strike from him. That's it from Antonio.

Chapter 2: How did Michail Antonio contribute to West Ham's victory?

35.144 - 44.132 Jamie Redknapp

And the man of the match, there he is, Issa Diop with Greg Whelan. Guys, great result. Mikael, the first team to come here and win. Just how sweet does it feel?

0

44.533 - 50.829 Michail Antonio

It's beautiful. To come here, put ourselves in history, and it's only right that West Ham did it.

0

51.43 - 56.683 Jamie Redknapp

How much of an incentive was it to come here today against a London rival and try and achieve something like this?

0

56.663 - 63.137 Michail Antonio

Definitely. It's a big rival for us. Obviously, Tottenham-West Ham rivalry goes way back.

0

Chapter 3: What factors influenced West Ham's performance against Tottenham?

64.26 - 76.005 Michail Antonio

For us to be the first team to win here, for us to come here and get a victory, point blank. It's a great achievement and we're loving it. The fans are loving it. We've just got to keep going for the last two games of the season.

0

76.306 - 83.34 Jamie Redknapp

Is there some anxious, nervous moments for West Ham towards the end there? Did you have to work really hard to preserve this result?

0

83.68 - 92.998 Issa Diop

Yeah, yeah, of course, because everybody knows Tottenham have a big player, so at the end it was a little bit difficult, but we kept the clean sheet.

0

93.704 - 99.552 Jamie Redknapp

Now, talking of history, you're the first person to score here for a visiting team. Were you aware of that when it went in? Was it in your mind?

0

Chapter 4: What role did the Tottenham-West Ham rivalry play in this match?

100.273 - 107.042 Michail Antonio

No, it wasn't in my mind. I didn't really know that. But, hey, another little mark, another little bit in history. So, love it.

0

107.803 - 116.999 Jamie Redknapp

Right. Now, tell us about this celebration as well, because people will be talking about this. There was the one against Fulham, wasn't there? One against Leicester. And now this one. What's this one about?

0

Chapter 5: How did West Ham's defense perform throughout the game?

117.059 - 128.47 Michail Antonio

This one, there's a guy that I follow on Instagram called Dan Roo and he does loads of crazy dance moves. And I saw it the other day and I was like, you know what? I've been busting it out in a couple of clubs. So I said, you know what? I'm going to have to do it on the pitch.

0

130.154 - 140.968 Michail Antonio

No, but I like to bring in something different to the game once you score and show the enjoyment of the game, the love of the game that I have and bring out my personality and that's how I do it.

0

140.988 - 147.076 Jamie Redknapp

Yes, so Mikel got what turned out to be the only goal of the game, but you went pretty close yourself. What was this run all about?

0

147.096 - 156.668 Issa Diop

I don't know. I tried to do like Mikey, but at the end I was not fresh in my head, so I can't finish.

0

Chapter 6: What were the key moments that defined the match outcome?

158.234 - 159.221 Issa Diop

You came pretty close.

0

159.382 - 171.79 Jamie Redknapp

Yeah, but I don't score, so... Mikel, a great result. People will be talking about this one. They'll also be talking about perhaps why West Ham, in the second half of the season, haven't been able to produce results like this more often.

0

172.671 - 181.419 Michail Antonio

It's just one of the things that are part of the game. We've come out. Every time we've come away, we've just not started right. But for the last three games, we've started right. We've been sharp.

0

Chapter 7: What are the implications of this result for Tottenham's Champions League hopes?

181.439 - 186.323 Michail Antonio

We've been showing what we can do. And hopefully we can finish the season strong this season and take it into next season.

0

186.763 - 199.709 Jamie Redknapp

Well, congratulations on your goal and a great result. Issa here is the Premier League man of the match. If you did the honours for us, please. Well done, guys. Thank you. Ledley King and James Collins are here with Jamie Redknapp. I get a sense you're not too surprised by that, James.

0

200.672 - 207.613 James Collins

No, I said before the game, you know, the line-up West Ham were putting out was pretty strong, full of pace.

0

Chapter 8: How does this victory impact West Ham's season overall?

207.796 - 222.314 James Collins

And, you know, like it's been mentioned that Tottenham could have had their eye on Tuesday night, but they came here and tried to win the game as well as West Ham did. But, you know, second half, I thought West Ham were, you know, far the better team. And in the end, probably could have got one or two more on the break in the second half. Thoroughly deserved, you think?

0

222.654 - 235.93 James Collins

Yeah, I'd say so, on the base of play. First half, maybe not, but certainly second half, you know, Natovic came into the game a bit more and sort of made things happen. And, you know, on the second half performance, I think it was thoroughly deserved. What happened to Spurs, Deadly?

0

236.517 - 261.462 Ledley King

Yeah, just fell away a little bit in the second half. Lacked a little bit of width at times. I felt he was coming down the middle quite a lot. And West Ham were dangerous on the counter-attack and there was a problem. I think that Arnautovic, Anderson and Antonio got a little bit closer to each other, started to kind of interchange positions and were causing a problem in the second half.

0

261.712 - 278.29 Jamie Redknapp

What did West Ham do well, Jamie, do you think? Lots of things well. I was very impressed. I thought Mark Noble in front of the back four was exceptional today. The amount of times he got himself in the right position, made the right passes. Diop, deserved man of the match. Alan Smith gave it to him, I think, the three of us. He got two quality centre-backs.

0

278.33 - 292.765 Jamie Redknapp

We were pretty much in awe of what he did today. Not easy for a young man to come into a game like this, only 22. And I felt, like Nedley said, they were dangerous today. They had that pace on the counter-attack. I don't think Spurs necessarily did anything wrong, just didn't have that quality that you want. No song perhaps wasn't his best.

292.846 - 308.502 Jamie Redknapp

Ericsson didn't score 25 yards a day like he did midweek and they never really got into their stride like we expect Spurs to. But I take nothing away from West Ham. I think they have more chances, more opportunities at goal, surrender possession at times. But I agree. I thought West Ham would have better side today. Well, come on to Diop.

308.522 - 323.96 Jamie Redknapp

But West Ham had seven attempts on target today in the previous four games here. Spurs had faced five efforts on target. It shows just how well West Ham have done here across 90 minutes. And Diop was involved in the build-up for the goal as well, James. Talk us through it, because it was really back to front.

324.241 - 341.606 James Collins

Yeah, all afternoon he was tremendous, you know, big, strong, wins the ball back, composure to play the ball. And that's where West Ham didn't panic all afternoon, you know, nice little ball back into Declan, drives forward with it and gives it to Anatovic, who pulled on to that right-hand side quite a lot in the second half. And this ball is, you know, sensational in the touch and finish.

341.966 - 343.669 James Collins

You know, it deserves to win any game.
