West Ham United midfielder Jarrod Bowen was left frustrated after their 2-0 defeat to Tottenham last night.

Bowen's strike against the post, which split the hosts' goals, had him wondering what might have been.

"On another day it goes inside the post, and if that goes in it's 1-1 and we're right back in the game," he told West Ham's website. "Unfortunately it's hit the post and gone wide.

"The first goal, being an own goal, was tough to take, but I felt we were still in the game. We had a couple of chances, we hit the post but they caught us on the counter attack to knock the stuffing out of us with the second goal so late on.

"i don't think you can fault any of the boys' effort - you could see that we worked hard without the ball, it's just unfortunate that the manner of the first goal killed us a bit."
