London: Ravel Morrison's skillful solo goal for West Ham completed a 3-0 victory over Tottenham in style as a 14-year wait for a win at their London rival in the Premier League ended Sunday.
Morrison picked up possession inside his own half and swept past both Michael Dawson and Jan Vertonghen before dunking the ball over goalkeeper Hugo Lloris in the 79th minute.
An ultra-defensive formation had seen West Ham struggle to threaten Tottenham's goal until Winston Reid opened the scoring in the 66th.
Then Ricardo Vaz Te fortuitously added another six minutes later, with the ball coming off his knee after Lloris blocked an initial shot.
West Ham's first win at White Hart Lane since 1999 lifted the team to 13th. Tottenham is out of the top four in sixth.
