Tottenham Hotspur came from a goal down to earn a comfortable 4-1 win over London rivals West Ham in the Premier League on Saturday.

Tensions boiled over late on as West Ham winger Mohammed Kudus, who had opened the scoring, was sent off after he kicked and pushed Spurs's Micky van de Ven and Pape Matar Sarr.

Spurs trailed following Kudus' 18th minute goal at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium but powered back with a brilliant second-half performance -- a reverse of their fortunes last time out when they collapsed against Brighton.

Dejan Kulusevski leveled the game in the 36th and after the break the home team took control. Yves Bissouma struck in the 52nd before and Alphonse Areola scored own goal three minutes later.

Son Heung-min added a fourth in the hour mark, sealing a well-earned three points for manager Ange Postecoglou's side.
