Tottenham fans turned on Thomas Frank and chanted “you’re getting sacked in the morning” after Callum Wilson struck a stoppage-time winner for relegation-threatened West Ham.
The pressure on Frank had cranked up after an FA Cup exit to Aston Villa extended their terrible run of form, but the midweek arrival of Conor Gallagher offered a much-needed lift for the under-fire Danish coach.
West Ham arrived in north London without a Premier League win in 10 matches, but held a deserved half-time lead thanks to Crysencio Summerville’s 15th-minute opener.
Spurs looked short of ideas but after being booed off at half-time, Cristian Romero’s bullet header offered hope.
Both team’s pushed for a winner and it went the way of West Ham after Wilson bundled home from a corner in the third-minute of stoppage-time to spark Tottenham’s South Stand to call for Frank’s dismissal after an eighth defeat in 14 matches.
Lukas Nmecha (above) stepped off the bench to fire a stoppage-time winner as Leeds United marked their tribute to former player Terry Yorath with a 1-0 win at Elland Road against Fulham.
Nmecha, an 81st-minute replacement for Jayden Bogle, latched on to skipper Ethan Ampadu’s cross in the first minute of added time to clinch victory, which keeps Leeds eight points clear of the Premier League’s relegation zone.
In front of Leeds great Eddie Gray, who celebrated his 78th birthday, the home side wore black armbands in honour of Yorath, who died earlier this month aged 75, while there was a minute’s applause for the former Wales midfielder and manager before kick-off.
Crystal Palace’s winless run extended to 10 games in all competitions after they were beaten 2-1 by Sunderland at the Stadium of Light.
A turbulent week for the Eagles saw them crash out of the FA Cup with defeat to non-League Macclesfield last Saturday, before boss Oliver Glasner confirmed on Friday that he would be leaving the club at the end of the season and that defender Marc Guehi is close to a move away.
Although Palace took the lead through Yeremy Pino’s top-corner finish after half-an-hour, Enzo Le Fee quickly replied for the Black Cats.
A strong second-half display from the hosts was rewarded when Brian Brobbey (pictured above) struck a superb winner to extend Sunderland’s unbeaten run at home to 11 Premier League games.
Guehi was not named in the Palace squad as he closes in on a switch to Manchester City.
