Jarrod Bowen’s 10th league goal this season helped West Ham United secure a 1-1 draw against Tottenham Hotspur at the London Stadium.
Max Kilman’s early mistake allowed Spurs to take the lead, with Wilson Odobert capitalising on the opportunity. West Ham responded well, and Aaron Wan-Bissaka set up Bowen for an equaliser from close range.
The home team appeared more likely to score again in the latter stages. Guglielmo Vicario made an impressive save to deny Bowen, while James Ward-Prowse narrowly missed with a free-kick during injury time. Despite their efforts, West Ham couldn’t find a winner.

Tottenham Hotspur remain in 16th place, while West Ham sit just below them in 17th position. The draw means both teams continue to struggle in the league standings. Tottenham’s focus on the Europa League has impacted their domestic form, with only 11 wins from 35 matches this season.
Bowen’s goal marked his 54th involvement in goals at the London Stadium in Premier League matches, equalling Michail Antonio’s record. Despite his performance, West Ham have now gone eight games without a win under Graham Potter, matching their longest winless streak since late 2017.
This season’s record for Tottenham is only surpassed by their performances in the 1994/95 and 2007/08 campaigns at this stage. Their current form highlights ongoing challenges as they balance domestic and European commitments.
West Ham’s recent struggles mirror a similar period under former manager Slaven Bilic when they also went eight games without a victory. The team will be eager to break this cycle and improve their standing as the season progresses.
The match showcased both teams’ determination but highlighted areas needing improvement. As they look ahead, both clubs aim to enhance their league positions and end their respective winless runs.
