For any fan who has gone through a relegation battle supporting their club, it is an experience that can feel to significantly age you.<\/p>\n
The whole process can see you experience a range of emotions over the course of a few weeks, but West Ham supporters lived through it all in one dramatic second half.<\/p>\n
There was no hint of what was to come in a drab first 45 minutes as neither side created a chance of note, but that all changed after Soucek struck six minutes after the restart.<\/p>\n
The experienced midfielder – making his 200th Premier League start for the Hammers – crashed home a trademark header from Jarrod Bowen’s corner to put the hosts ahead.<\/p>\n
At that time, West Ham were going four points clear of the bottom three with Spurs being held by already-relegated Wolves.<\/p>\n
But things dramatically changed in both games as full-time approached.<\/p>\n
First, Joao Palhinha put Tottenham ahead against Wolves and moments later Dewsbury-Hall levelled at West Ham.<\/p>\n
That combination of scores put the Hammers in the bottom three and there was an air of deflation around the London Stadium.<\/p>\n
But that all changed when Wilson struck two minutes into the eight added on. <\/p>\n
The dramatic nature of this win will provide a significant boost to West Ham’s morale as they bid to stay in the Premier League.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
