Tottenham fought hard for their 1-0 win over West Ham at the London Stadium on Saturday. The win came via a header from Erik Lamela in the first half.
Lamela has been one of the best players for Tottenham this season and the Argentine was quick to post how important the three points were on Twitter.
3 puntos claves afuera de casa para seguir ahí arriba en la pelea … vamos equipo, a seguir 💪💪
3 big points to continue the fight up top! We keep on going 💪 #EL11 #COYS #premierleague pic.twitter.com/vytNT0CeNn

It wasn’t just Lamela who had a good game. Moussa Sissoko provided the assist for the Argentine, and the midfielder was also quick to suggest the importance of the derby win.
Sissoko has had a tough time since signing for Spurs but the Frenchman was genuinely one of our better players on the pitch.
Very important victory on the Derby ! Congrats to all the team 👊🏿 #COYS #MS17 pic.twitter.com/1Gxh3s0nFM

Paulo Gazzaniga didn’t get to start the game thanks to Hugo Lloris coming back from injury. However, the Argentine posted his comments on Twitter as well.
➕3️⃣!! Important victory on the derby! Congrats, @ErikLamela!
Triunfo importante en el derby! Felicitaciones Coco! 💪 #COYS pic.twitter.com/VClUdHf9Rh— Paulo Gazzaniga (@GazzanigaPaulo) October 20, 2018
Toby Alderweireld had a tough task at hand keeping Marko Arnautovic in check. The West Ham attacker was a real threat for the Hammers and was thwarted on multiple occasions by Lloris in the game.

Alderweireld’s partner in the middle of the defence, Jan Vertonghen, was out due to injury. However, that did not stop the Belgian from praising the team for the performance.
Get in! Well played boys 👏🏻 #COYS https://t.co/kh6wKRsESh

Davinson Sanchez did a decent job in place of Vertonghen and the Colombian celebrated his 50th appearance for Spurs with a clean sheet too.
Gran victoria! 🙌🏾 Muy feliz por mis primeros 5️⃣0️⃣ partidos con el club! Por muchos más!
