Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham have a bizarre rivalry indeed—and a rather lopsided one at that. Spurs have always seen West Ham as some kind of gnat in the house to be swatted at. And swatting away they've done today. Spurs, led by a boisterous Harry Kane, opened an account of four goals to show their dominance.Above, we see Kane executing a nice pivot around a rebounded shot that laid the ball right in his lap. The ball finds the net with force, making a kind of pert metaphor for how this game is going.Minutes later, Kane, being the unpredictable Kane that he is, makes just about the biggest gaffe you've ever seen in the sport. The ball nearly takes a right angle off of his foot, proving that no, you never know with old Harry.
Buuuuut, there was redemption for the Follicle'd One, as he collects an assist off of an errant West Ham pass and rockets the ball underneath the armpit of West Ham's keeper Adrian San Miguel del Castillo for Spurs third goal on the game—Kane's second.
But Harry is far from alone in administering this onslaught, as Kyle Walker curled a ball around Adrian like a ribbon on a present. Outside of the foot—just cheeky enough to remind West Ham that their lone goal on the occasion is all but moot in the face of Tottenham's dominant four.
What is this rivalry about again?
