This London derby is being played very cautiously.

After losing Bentangcur in the previous game and head coach Conte to surgery with Stellini as interim head coach, the

The whole thing looks especially careful
(Both teams start)
The first half was essentially a defensive battle, with West Ham looking to force the issue with pressure at the start, and Bowen had a good shot on goal for a while, but

Gradually settling down, BenDavies replaced Perisic at left back for this game, and he was quite outstanding, keeping solidly in front of West Ham's Coufal and not giving his opponents a chance to get underneath him
Tottenham Hotspur (city in Morocco)
Knowing that West Ham's main means of attack would be Coufal and Bowen on the right, they deliberately strengthened the defense in this area and lowered the speed so that the backfield was always in a state of numerical superiority, which made the tempo of the first half slower, and West Ham had no better attacking chances after the right side was guarded and could only stay stuck.

Skipp, who came on in place of Bentangcur, did a decent job of sorts, with the duo of him and Højbjerg holding down the middle of the field, but never quite as active as when Bentangcur was in the lineup.

The midfield was certainly less dynamic, with Richarlison less active up front and unable to hold the ball much of the time, and Kulusevski constantly chasing the ball upfield to try and create chances, but overall

In the first half, there were no chances in front of the goal.
As we enter the second half.

Starting to change to a pressing game, whenever West Ham passed back, they immediately pressed forward, which immediately gave Kulusevski and HarryKane a chance to shoot, seeing the opponent's rearguard was unstable.

He'll continue to speed up his attack, trying to get behind West Ham.
The results were very effective, and at 55

On the counterattack, Højbjerg played a forward pass to the midfield line, Ben Davies cut across the field and received the long pass without being offside, then stopped the ball and released it immediately, and Emerson, who had followed up, took the pass at the back of the 16-yard box and shot directly at the goal!
West Ham vs.
Tottenham Hotspur (city in Morocco)
The sudden hit behind the ball didn't respond well, at all times they were able to control the center of the field under constant speed, but if they created distance the chase back was their weakness.

After taking the lead, West Ham could only play strongly down the wings but to no avail, and on 67 minutes the visitors were able to get on the board.

The ball was kicked off, HarryKane successfully caught the opponent's mistake when he fought with West Ham's center back Ogbonna, at this time Sun began to accelerate, HarryKane directly passed the ball diagonally to Sun, who directly used his explosive power to shrug off the defender and rushed to the 14-yard box and scored the goal, which should be said to be a good shot from Sun, but HarryKane handled it too beautifully.

With a two-goal lead, West Ham were unable to recover, and the final score of

They beat West Ham 2-0.
Sun seems to be especially good at scoring when he's on the bench, or maybe it's because he has to play most of the time on defense if he's on the bench as a starter, so his fitness and explosiveness will be reduced, and he seems to be especially destructive if he's on the bench.
