Noble on Spurs shock: Great day for West Ham

West Ham captain Mark Noble was delighted for the club after their win at Tottenham.

Michail Antonio's superb second-half strike was enough to inflict Spurs' first loss after five games in their new stadium.

“The way we've played, we thoroughly deserved the result today," Noble told West Ham TV. “To come here is hard enough as it is, but to play the way that we did was brilliant. I thought we performed really well today and deserved our win.

“We felt like we could hurt them in some places. I felt, in the second half, we relaxed a bit more on the ball. In the first half, we perhaps tried to score too quickly. We tried to go forward too quick but we played a bit in the second half.

“Michail got a great finish and, all in all, a terrific performance. The first team to win and score here – it goes down in history. What a fantastic day for the Club!"
