Tottenham secured Premier League survival on a dramatic final day of the season on Sunday as West Ham’s 14-year stay in the top division came to an end.
Spurs kicked off against Everton needing, realistically, only a draw to avoid relegation for the first time since 1977 – as they sat two points clear of the Hammers with a significantly better goal difference.
Joao Palhinha released the mounting pressure at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium just before halftime, poking home after his header thundered back off a post.
