    Even if West Ham get something from this game, Pellegrini has to go. He seems utterly clueless. Haller and Antonio were tremendous up front against Saints. So he subs one for the other. Baffling!

    James Maddison is on for Leicester. Handy sub to have up your sleeve. He replaces Ayoze Perez.

    Norwich 2-1 Tottenham

    Giovani Lo Celso has another go from the edge of the box, hitting it low towards Tim Krul's right corner.

    The Norwich keeper gathers it in comfortably.

    If the scores stay like this it keeps the dogfight interesting for the neutrals at least...

    Norwich 2-1 Tottenham

    Lucas Moura lifts it into the box and Dele Alli coolly chests it down into the path of Giovani Lo Celso.

    He volleys it first time and ends up smashing it into Alli.

    Spursy.

    A big cheer as Robert Snodgrass replaces Carlos Sanchez for West Ham.

    There is still half an hour left.

    GOAL - Norwich 2-1 Tottenhampublished at 18:48 Greenwich Mean Time 28 December 2019

    Serge Aurier OG

    It's a lovely build-up from Norwich. A quick one-two in the middle before it's slipped through to Teemu Pukki.

    His shot is blocked by Toby Alderweireld but it bounces into Serge Aurier, hits his shin and bobbles over the line.

    Rotten luck. Is that to make up for Pukki's ruled out goal earlier?!

    Everything about the goal was good from Leicester but it all broke down after West Ham gave the ball away further up the pitch. Leicester have cut through the West Ham defence like a knife through butter. It was far too easy.

    Norwich 1-1 Tottenham

    Spurs have a spring in their step. Dele Alli tries to flick it onto Lucas Moura but it doesn't quite come off.

    Norwich then break quickly down the left but when it comes into the box, Teemu Pukki gets his feet all tangled up.

    End-to-end!

    Can someone explain why that's not a red card for Lewis? Clearly deliberately denied a goal scoring opportunity?

    Zed

    Was Kane not offside in the build up to that free kick? Where is the consistency?

  12. DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 18:46 Greenwich Mean Time 28 December 2019

    Norwich 1-1 Tottenham

    Harry Kane keeps the ball in on the right touchline and plays it inside to Lucas Moura. He steps past two challenges but Christian Eriksen's shot is blocked.

    Spurs keep the ball, playing it around nicely - Ryan Sessegnon to Eriksen, and eventually lifted over to Dele Alli. He pokes it over the keeper and into the net. A glorious goal but it's won't count. It's ruled out immediately for offside.

    Demarai Gray (56 mins)

    Like a school game! There's just nobody in the West Ham midfield at all as Ayoze Perez runs through, Issa Diop tries to wrestle him to the ground and break up the counter but he gets his pass away to Demarai Gray.

    He missed a penalty in the first half but makes no mistake this time, clipping into the net.

    You can hear the boos by the West Ham fans because people want to see Sebastien Haller and Michail Antonio on the pitch at the same time. Not one replacing the other.

  15. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 18:43 Greenwich Mean Time 28 December 2019

    Michail Antonio, minus his snowman costume and Lambo, comes on for Sebastien Haller. The crowd don't like that one.

    Christian Eriksen

    What. A. Goal.

    It's special from Christian Eriksen, who curls the free-kick delightfully into the top left corner. May have taken a slight deflection off someone in the wall but it's still a beauty.

    A hush over the stadium. Nothing much going on at the moment. I'm still fuming about that Pukki disallowed goal and I'm not even watching that match...

  18. YELLOW CARDpublished at 18:41 Greenwich Mean Time 28 December 2019

    Norwich 1-0 Tottenham

    Harry Kane is adament there's a handball by Jamal Lewis as another long ball is pinged forward. The England striker and his teammates rush over to Kevin Friend but the referee is already poised to blow his whistle. It's only a free-kick - just outside the area - but Lewis goes into the book too.

    Mario Vrancic eventually heads off to the touchline and throws some water on himself. He's fine to carry on.

    Paul Parker
    Ex-QPR and Manchester United defender on BBC Radio London

    West Ham have to continue the intensity they finished the first half off with it. It they don't then Manuel Pellegrini must make a change. He needs to introduce players who want it and maybe should have made one change at half-time. Mark Noble, Robert Snodgrass and Michail Antonio would all make an impact on the game.
