Tottenham roared back to beat West Ham 4-1 on Saturday, scoring three goals in eight frantic second-half minutes to ease the pain of their recent collapse against Brighton.
The teams were level at halftime at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium after Mohammed Kudus's opener against the run of play was cancelled out by the impressive Dejan Kulusevski.
"Second half was outstanding from the lads – good energy, good goals, good football, probably should have created a couple more," said Tottenham's Australian manager Postecoglou. Kudus found the net for the second successive game in the 18th minute following more good work down the right by Bowen, whose shot deflected into the path of the Ghana international.Brennan Johnson squandered an opportunity with his head and Areola reacted sharply to keep out a deflected Pedro Porro effort but Spurs got the equaliser they deserved in the 36th minute.
Postecoglou replaced England midfielder Maddison with Pape Sarr at halftime in a surprise tactical switch but it paid early dividends.
