Match Report

Ange Postecoglou's Tottenham side fell to a 3-2 defeat against rivals West Ham in the Australian's first game in charge at the club.

Postecoglou watched on Spurs were narrowly beaten by their London rivals in a closely contested match at the Optus Stadium in Perth, Australia.

Gianluca Scamacca, Danny Ings and Divin Mubamba were all on target for David Moyes' side, as they cruised to a third-successive pre-season victory.

Spurs, meanwhile, nearly rescued a draw through second-half strikes from Giovanni Lo Celso and Destiny Udogie but it was too little, too late for the north London side.

There'll still be plenty of positives for Spurs fans to look back on, after getting a glimpse of their new attacking-style in action for the first time.
