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.
