Tottenham's first team may be struggling to convert their chances of late but the Under-18s certainly are not as West Ham were thrashed 9-0 on Saturday.

Remarkably, the scores remained level until the 45th minute when Hammers defender Mbule Longelo Emmanuel deflected Harvey White's cross into his own net. Rodel Richards added a second minutes later for a 2-0 half-time lead.

White got his goal on the penalty spot soon after the restart before Richards added a fourth, a curling effort from outside the box, as the hour mark approached.

Troy Parrott and J'Neil Bennett got in on the act to put Spurs six up on 63 minutes. Parrott added his second as the game entered the final 20 minutes, chipping a finish over the keeper.

Dilan Markanday and Rayan Clarke completed the rout at West Ham's Little Heath Sports Centre as Spurs recorded their best win since putting nine past Arsenal in April.
