On Saturday, November 23, 2019, Tottenham Hotspur secured their first away win in the Premier League since January under new manager Jose Mourinho, defeating West Ham 3-2 at the London Stadium.
Jose Mourinho expressed his happiness with his players' performance, stating, "I was really happy before we conceded the two goals, we were playing well, bringing to the game things we had tried in training."
Spurs were cruising at 3-0 up, but West Ham's Michail Antonio and Angelo Ogbonna scored in the final minutes to make the score 3-2.
Despite the late comeback, Tottenham's win propelled them to sixth place in the league table, eight points behind champions Manchester City in fourth spot, having played a game more.
Dele Alli reflected on the emotional toll of the week, saying, "It's been a very tough week for us emotionally. We've spent a long time with Pochettino and we were very sad but we had a job to do."
