Tottenham Hotspur vs West Ham United score result highlights as

Tottenham Hotspur's new era under the leadership of Ange Postecoglou has gotten off to a losing start against West Ham at Optus Stadium in Perth.

Tottenham Hotspur's new era under the leadership of Ange Postecoglou has gotten off to a losing start against West Ham at Optus Stadium.

In an entertaining pre-season friendly in Perth, the Hammers prevailed 3-2 after Spurs had fought back from two goals down only to lose to a late Gianluca Scamacca finish.

West Ham were under siege for most of the match as Postecoglou's attacking style showed signs of early promise. Yet they were unable to convert their numerous chances into goals until a three-minute burst in the second half gave them hope of a perfect start under the Australian manager.

However, it wasn't to be with two first half goals from Danny Ings and Divin Mubama, which came via set pieces, ultimately proving decisive.

Tottenham vs West Ham updates, highlights and commentary

FT: Tottenham 2 - 3 West Ham

93 mins: One last chance for Spurs who earn a free kick after Fornals commits a foul 30-odd yards out. It's chipped in towards the back post but West Ham nod it away.

90 mins: Four minutes of stoppage time.

89 mins: The chances continue to come for Spurs with Sanchez guiding a tame effort straight at the keeper before they appeal for a penalty when Davies goes down. The ref waves play on.

85 mins: Chance for Richarlison who aims a header straight at Fabianski from a few yards out. Big opportunity missed.

84 mins: That sucker punch has hurt Spurs after mounting their two-goal comeback only to concede against the run of play.

Bowen trudges off after another impressive stint, while Zouma joins him on the sidelines.

Double change from the gaffer as Zouma and Bowen are replaced by Luizão and Earthy. ????

66 mins: The rain is lashing down as West Ham absorb yet more pressure.

64 mins: Spurs still can't find a way through with Richarlison once again getting into space in the box but unable to covert.

59 mins: Richardson is being a pest leading the line and gets an appreciative clap from his manager.

The Brazilian then races through on goal but smashes his effort off the post. Not long afterward he is unable to keep a glancing header down.

Denied by the woodwork! ????

54 mins: The raft of changes made by both sides has brought the tempo down somewhat but the story remains the same - plenty of the ball for Spurs but still no goals as yet.

Moyes makes his first change of the game with a straight swap up front.

52 mins: Spurs have been camped on the edge of West Ham's box but have still been unable to make a chance count.

47 mins: Plenty of changes for both sides and it's Richarlison, who is on for Kane, who cuts a ball across the face of goal - it catches a deflection though from an onrushing Hammers defender and goes out for a corner.

45 mins: We're back underway!

HT: Tottenham 0 - 2 West Ham

So, over 70 per cent possession for Postecoglou's side in the opening stanza and plenty of decent chances. But they have been unable to get past Fabianski, who has thwarted them at every turn.

For the Hammers, it's two goals from two set-pieces with Bowen again looking threatening every time he gets on the ball.

45 mins: Solomon goes down in the box after driving a chance straight at Fabianski. Bowen slides in during the shot and Spurs want a penalty, but the ref waves play on.

West Ham then spring up the other end with Vicario pulling off a diving save to his left.

41 mins: Fabianksi again denies Tottenham as Bissouma ghosts into the box and shoots low.

Kulusevski then earns a corner when his shot is blocked. Spurs go short and a goal mouth scramble ensues with Solomon snatching at it while in acres of space in the box.

38 mins: Second shaky moment from Vicario as he just about manages to find a teammate with a pass. From the resulting phase though, Solmon attempts to curl one into the top corner, but Fabianski palms it out.

A round of applause goes around the ground on 38 minutes in memory of former West Ham player Dylan Tombides, who tragically lost his life to testicular cancer.

There is warm applause in the 38th minute in memory of @Dylantombides.

Forever remembered. ❤️

35 mins: Bowen goes down with a knee injury and the ref calls a stoppage just as it seemed Kane was going to latch onto a through ball. Spurs fans not happy.

Meanwhile, Bowen seems to be alright.

32 mins: Some nice link play down the left between Solomon and Maddison but the English international's cross is blocked. It's been a frustrating first half an hour for Spurs so far.

28 mins: Spurs again enjoying plenty of the ball, but they haven't been able to carve out any meaningful opportunities since their two early chances which were saved by Fabianski.

25 mins: Off the kickoff, Maddison embarks on a mazy run before he's chopped down on the edge of the box. The midfielder lines it up and smacks it straight at the wall.

23 mins: Goal! Terrible moment for Vicario in goal as he is put under pressure and sprays a ball straight over the line for a corner. And it proves costly with Mubama heading home.

Two corners. Two set pieces. Two goals for @WestHam

20 mins: Spurs respond and earn back-to-back corners, yet they come to nothing before a pass just runs ahead of Kane in the box to go out for a goal kick.

18 mins: GOAL! Ings puts West Ham in front after Spurs fail to deal with the second phase of a corner. The striker nodding home from five yards out.

THE HAMMERS STRIKE FIRST!

17 mins: Maddison sends Kulusevski through down the right with an inch perfect weight of pass, but as he cuts in from the left to get a shot off it's blocked by a defender.

Bowen then replies for West Ham as he cuts inside and sees his shot blocked by Tanganga.

11 mins: Solomon threads a delicate ball into the box with Fabianski once again called upon to make a save from close range. Wave after wave of attack from Spurs who are being patient in possession.

Brilliant work from Solomon and Skippy goes so close to opening the scoring!

Lovely football ????

9 mins: Bowen and Kane engage in a scrap for the ball with the West Ham star winning it. His side can't keep it for long though.

7 mins: The Hammers enjoy a bit of time on the ball in the centre of the park, before Kane wins his side a free kick. It's worked left and Spurs almost carve open West Ham but a smart save by Fabianski keeps scores level.

3 mins: Early show of intent from Spurs who have penned West Ham into their own half while they enjoy all of the possession. West Ham were already 1-0 up against Perth on Saturday at this point in the game.
